Filmmaker and writer Aishah Shahidah Simmons, who teaches in the women’s and LGBT studies program at Temple University, poses for a photograph Friday, April 25, 2014, in Philadelphia. Students on college campuses across the country are increasingly asking their professors to provide &quot;trigger warnings&quot; for classes that cover content that might be upsetting to individuals who have been sexually assaulted, touched by suicide, survived war or experienced other traumatic situations. Such warnings, long a feature of the blogosphere, are now cropping up on course syllabi or before lectures. Simmons is a rape and incest survivor who is “on the fence” about making trigger warnings mandatory for college faculty, but already uses them in her courses. (AP Photo/Matt Rourke)
