However, a correction needs to be made in the printed version of my letter. It reads, "...the effects of alcoholism rebound not only upon the alcoholic himself...", whereas my typewritten original used the word redound. The only explanation I can adduce is that the Thresher, ignorant of the word redound, thought that I had misspelled "rebound" and took the liberty of "correcting" my mistake. This detracted from the precision and euphony of my original wording. (I shudder to think of what they could have done to concomitant and deleterious!) What can be done to remedy this egregious paucity of erudition? I suggest that the student body of Rice University take up a collection to purchase an unabridged Random House Dictionary for the Thresher office.
