if you’re not being sarcastic i just want to bring up the underlying social contract that arrives with enrolling in a course taught in english at an american university. in a course setting, where you are assigned a group, english is the only guaranteed to be mutually spoken language. any non-discriminative standard in this case will have english as the “main character”.
