IWADE USF In Search of Truth

Last week's editorial, "Official Position," (10-31-90) raised an important question regarding the dispensing of condoms on campus and the Institutional Policy on Freedom of Expression. That question is, what is the official position ofthe University on this issue and why is a Jesuit University unable to express its Catholic viewpoint? The Policy on Freedom of Expression protects the expression of those views contrary to the official position of USF. Who, then, expresses the official position of USF? The administrators should do so; unfortunately they do not. I should not like to think that this is due to an ignorance of the official position on the part of the administration. The official position is essentially the Catholic position and it is the responsibility of each administrator to uphold and express that. Relegating that individual responsibility to vague policies or certain University offices leaves the University 7, kDiAttJlVrTZ.A-TIOtf -JMSOlte OF without a voice and creates confusion when an important con­ A CO tJT> OW\'«» JZ-te-rHTS U^DEHR. troversy such as this one is raised.
