In-class speech incident

In September 2020, students circulated a letter regarding Professor Greg Patton’s example of a Mandarin filler word during class on cross-cultural business communication that they heard as a racial pejorative in English.

"It is simply unacceptable for the faculty to use words in class that can marginalize, hurt and harm the psychological safety of our students," Garrett said in an initial response.

The incident led to wider discussions of free speech on college campuses and responsibility in business communication across cultures, including commentary from The Daily Show , Los Angeles Magazine “How a Mild-Mannered USC Professor Accidentally Ignited Academia’s Latest Culture War,” and faculty members on both sides of the issue

The USC Office for Equity, Equal Opportunity and Title IX (EEO-TIX) looked into this matter and concluded that the concerns expressed by students were sincere, but that Professor Patton’s actions did not violate Title IX or University policies.
