Kudos!
Thank you for the article ["Can You
Be Gay & Greek?," Feb. '99] which was
courageous and fairly done. I was a
member of Lambda Chi Alpha at the U.
of Arizona, Tucson, and I'm also active in
e gay community here in San Diego.;
Gary L. Vyne
Thank you for including the informa-
tion you did about being Greek and gay.
I am the alumnae advisor to my chapter;
at the College of William and Mary and
am gay. I've always thought that the
topic is an important one and should be
researched. I will tell you that my nation-
al organization is very homophobic -
eaven forbid if we get a reputation of being the lesbian sorority.
is a shame because there should be room for all. Please con-
tinue to air this topic as our collegiates and administrators need
to be educated.
Marcie Wolfe
Thank you for your article by Jessica Lyons contributing to the
increased understanding of gender issues.
Mary Gay Hutcherson
Thanks for considering the gay community and covering trans-
gender issues. It is important to counterbalance the evil of homo-
phobia.
Matt Ignoffo

Just a note of congratulations on a valuable treatment of gay
and lesbian issues relating to fraternities and sororities. Keep up
the good work!

Miracle or Murder?
' itJust what are the odds that Preven
["Morning-After Miracle," Feb. '99] con-
sistently prevents conception? So this is
where we are -just take a few pills and
you can conveniently murder your
unborn child. What a miracle! After all,
it's just "pregnancy tissue'" or a "blob of
protoplasm."
The only protected sex is sex within
marriage, but many young people argue
that this is old-fashioned and oppressive.
Oh, really? Suffering from chlamydia, her-
pes or drug-resistant gonorrhea isn't
oppressive? Dying of AIDS isn't oppres-
sive? Killing innocent children isn't
oppressive?
Obviously, pro-abortionists don't
understand that women (and men) have perfect control over their
bodies and destinies when they say "No" to adultery. Only when
a child is conceived does the issue of "control" suddenly become
a major concern.
And in the name of that 'control" and "reproductive freedom,"
more than 35 million children have been cut to pieces, burned with
salt, suctioned out or even pulled out of their mother's wombs and
killed like laboratory frogs. (But of course, animals have rights but
unborn children don't.)
We are repulsed by how the ancient Aztecs offered human
sacrifices to their imaginary gods, but we sacrifice our children to
the bloodthirsty gods of lust, convenience and feminism. When a
society measures its freedom by how many children it can dehu-
manize and exterminate, then that society is edging ever closer to
pledging allegiance to a swastika-emblazoned flag.

DAVID CASH: SHOULD HE BE EXPELLED?

Photos by Irene Tang, U. of California, Berkeley

His legal situa-
tion should be
handled inde-
pendently from
his academic
career.

I would spit
in that boy's
face if I ever
saw him. He
gives our
school a bad
name.
Wafa Faris, senior

No. He didn't
break any
school rules.
James Eby, senior

It's sad that
a public uni-
versity can't
condemn his
behavior.
