Well, that would probably be included IF anyone attending and/or teaching at the university knew the difference between a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, etc.

I went to law school at the University of California, and lived in Berkeley. I met several people (not in the law school, they tended to be more serious) who thought it was unbelievably clever to say, “Truth, justice OR the American way.”
Living in Berkeley taught me to despise liberals for the whining, self-obsessed, entitled, reality-denying @ssholes they are.
Which brings me to the “also banned” phrase:
. . . “common sense.”
