Franklin & Marshall students protest against racist Halloween costumes JULIA WALTERS Managing Editor Last Friday morning, hundreds of students attend- ing Franklin and Marshall College protested racist costumes that depict offensive stereotypes relating to people of African, Asian, and Hispanic descent. of worn by five student-athletes on Halloween. The stu- dents in question were from the men’s basketball and soccer teams. The photos were posted on social media but have since been removed from the platforms. The students, who have received death threats and significant backlash for their actions, are currently going through the student conduct process. Accord- ing to the Franklin and Marshall Student Code, “The student conduct process is intended to be a learning experience which yields growth, behavioral changes, and a personal understanding of the responsibilities, consequences, and impacts of actions. Outcomes are designed to balance education with accountability and community safety. This process balances the needs and rights of students with the needs and expectations of the College.” This process will also determine what kinds of punishment are necessary and appropriate for the students. In an interview with WGAL, Margaret Hazlett, the school’s vice president said of the incidents, “There are important issues that every community is facing, ev- ery college campus. But it’s with us right now at F&M.” However, this is not the first problem that Franklin and Marshall has encountered relating to racism. Early this past October, an anti-Asian racial slur was found outside of a student’s dorm room.

  • On the Edge of Time 2021Web.Pdf
    OnEdgeOfTime_CoverUpdate21.indd 1 4/19/21 4:11 PM Dear Reader, You don’t have to be a social, economic, ecological, or political analyst to recognize we’ve got problems here on earth, major problems. From the ever looming threats of ecological collapse and nuclear war, to global pandemics and natural disasters, to unnumbered social ills and a failing world economy, secular scientists are telling us we’ve never been closer to “doomsday” than we are today. But is anyone listening? I’m afraid many of us have gotten much too comfortable living in this world, insulating ourselves with the hope that things will get better when clearly they aren’t—just a glance at today’s news headlines and a survey of ancient and modern history proves that. Are we just putting our heads in the sand, medicating ourselves with whatever fl eeting distraction or substance we can fi nd to escape reality? Or have we just plain gotten use to it all, hardened by constant exposure? When I was a kid being sick was normal for me until I got sick of being sick and discovered there was a cause and a cure. By obeying nature’s laws, I could strengthen my immune system, resist disease, and bring my body into proper balance. Now good health is the norm. This world is sick, but to most of us it’s normal. We don’t realize what the underlying cause is or where to fi nd the cure. It is my prayer that this book will help you discover both and give you hope.

THE SUNDAY CLOSING LAWS DECISIONS - A CRITIQUE Theodore R. Mann* and Marvin Garfinkel** Introduction Abraham Braunfeld is an Orthodox Jew'who owns and operates a retail children's clothing store. His store is open from Monday morning until mid- afternoon on Friday, at which time the Fourth Commandment requires that he close. He remains closed until Sunday morning, when he opens his store again and operates a full day. A state law forbidding him to work on Sunday is enforced against him. The entire week-end is now foreclosed to him. He must either work on Saturday and thus violate his conscience or go out of business and lose his means of earning a living as well as his capital investment. May he be constitu- tionally confronted with such a choice? The United States Supreme Court has recently answered yes.' During the past century and a half many American courts have sustained the constitutionality of Sunday closing laws.2 The United States Supreme Court so concluded in 1951 in the case of Friednian v.
