I'd like to say this is hysterical, but given that it is likely absolutely true, it's really pathetic.
1. Does rolling your eyes when someone says something stupid constitute harassment?
2. How would anyone know what eye-rolling was based on?
I wonder how many institutions of higher learning are this stupid?

I suppose that in that environment I'd likely go into unibomber mode. [because BTK mode is too messy]
Sadly, if these half-wits claim to represent the countries intelligencia, maybe it's time for a culling of that herd. [No the cow reference wasn't intended, but now makes me amused in that it may insult some collegiate cattle.]
I suppose I should be thankful that I won't have to put up with such utterly moronic policies.
Hmmm. Eye-rolling is out. How about derisive snorts sans eye moevement? No actual words used and the eyes remain focused. Is that hostile? Oooh, wait, I know, open your eyes really, really wide, and don't blink while looking at someone for a minute or two. So much less hostile than eye-rolling.
What a crock.
Mmmm... I like the idea of the unibomber mode, but that could hit innocent victims. How about blanket parties for those that deserve them?
Or, taking up Granted's line, what if you emit insane, high-pitched giggles in their presence, but without ever looking at them? Would that count as harassment?
Well, I guess in unibomber mode isn't the best thing. But I have trouble with not calling an idiot an idiot. So I'd get in trouble too quickly.
I like the staring thing. Maybe even with arched eyebrows or similar to show disbelief or confusion at the stupid statement.
I don't know that I could do any of them. Just spouting out "That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard" usually does more for me.
