To Whom It May Concern-

I too, read Chris Slattery’s article in this week’s Lanthorn and I am not outraged, and am in no way near some angry outbreak as many of these other students seem to be. I do happen to be a religious Jewish adult that attends Grand Valley State University and I do think the article at least requires some sort of attention. My issue is not in fact with the article itself, but with The Lanthorn. If Mr. Slattery is known for being such a controversial writer, it is not his responsibility to censor his writing, but the operation he is writing for. The disclaimer put in the paper about his writing at the beginning of the year should be printed weekly to avoid any miscommunications such as this one. This entire outbreak of anger could/should have been avoided. I agree, people have overreacted to this issue, but it could have been completely avoided on your part. Just a thought for next time to avoid such animosity.

Thanks,

SAMMI FINE
