> "Safe space" is two-edged

Fair - to be honest I'm holding in mind a fairly idealised version of university where the professors excel in both teaching and research and are open to discussing all reasonable viewpoints. Possibly because I was in the sciences I don't have much familiarity with struggles with closed-minded lecturers. Also I was thinking about the environment outside of studies - students have financial loans and grants to ease their transition, opportunities to socialise and avoid loneliness, and easy access to free advice and therapy etc... .
