Is There a Need for a Freshman Orientation?

I strongly believe that having different points of view on contentious academic issues is important, or to be an essential feature of a successful university. Both students and faculty would certainly benefit from serious debates, yes, academic intellectual debates. So in that sense, I feel that if a particular specific point of view is missing from a particular academic program, that should typically is not mathematics. If it's missing, you should do something about it. But when it comes to students, no, I wouldn't do anything. I mean, I would just go for maybe absolute merit.
