Mount Holyoke Students Create 'Alternative Space' For Those Triggered By Gun Rights Speech | Daily Wire:

"Not to be confused with a "safe space," an alternative space is supposed to be a "productive" response to a speaker who doesn't fall in line with the predominant, leftist ideology on a campus. Instead of providing crayons and therapy dogs, the "alternative" space is supposed to provide an honest and frank discussion of precisely why the attendees are unable to handle a speaker of differing ideology.

Think of it as a sort of "evolution" of safe space culture. Instead of self-soothing, they're self-reinforcing."
