Dear Editors,
On Wednesday, Oct. 14, you
published a letter criticizing an article by
Mr. Nicholas that had appeared the
. previous week. Although Nicholas'
'article was slightly extreme on some
points, Mr. Moumts' letter was
thouroughly disgusting, especially the
"like-it-or-leave-it attitude expressed in

The best of the columns
Dear Editor,
In regard to Kyle Nicholas's column
last Thursday, I must say it is the best to
appear in the Collegian so far this year.
Bill Pierce is always entertaining and
Mike Wise has a certain flair, but no¬
body—not even Harvie(ha, ha)—has
produced a more powerful column this
semester.
He took a serious subject (AIDS) and
wrote it from a viewpoint that anyone
could sympathize with- that of a young
boy worried about.his blood brother
friend that got the "slims!" ,
The impact is not one to be forgotten
for a while. Stop writing the boring
political stuff, Kyle, and write those
gems like last week.
