Political Analogies Are Inappropriate in "CONN Food"

Leiter to the Voice: I was dismayed to read Richard Powell's article, CONN Food lsn' t Fit For a Camel. While I do not dis- agree with his argument on the faults of the college dining system, Iam not in the slightest bit interested in his pointless political analogies. His name-dropping has absolutely nothing to do with the article, and it is obvious that he has a minimal grasp of the writings by the figures he throws about. Iam not included in the "many" who claim to share his absurd interpretation of the world, and Idon't appreciate his generalizations on the benefits of central planning or a free-market system. He is either a fool or a badly educated Government major.

Sincerely, Chris Wallerstein, '91

About twenty students gathered each night to hear Brewer speak. According to Brewer, he first experimented with cocaine during spring break of his freshman year at Connecticut College, and continued because he enjoyed the high. '\ Brewer had been active in baskelball, butafterbegining to use the drug, he said his "priorities switched to cocaine first, basketball second, and school last." He said his circle of friends became those who could "supply me with cocaine," both in and out of school. "I found that 1didn't want to do things with friends unless cocaine was involved," he said. At one point, Brewer's parents received an anonymous leuer saying that Brewer was seriously invloved with cocaine and needed help. When confronted by his parents with the news, Brewer succeeded in convincing his parents that it was false. The culmination of Brewer's addiction was expulsion from the college for a vandalism violation, committed while he was high on cocaine. Brewer entered an intensive drug rehabilitation program on an outpa- tient basis, meeting-three times a week for a period offour hours ata time. The college re-accepted him this year to finish his senior year, and Brewer expressed how fortunate he felt to be given another chance. Brewer is no longer using cocaine, though he says his addiction is something he fights every day.
