like institutions have gone too far in becoming “politically cor- rect,” to the point where simply disagreeing can label someone an intolerant pig. Shouldn’t the point of col- lege be to learn; to disagree as intelligent individuals, to carry on rational conversations, try to understand your opponent and to make compromises? I don’t think sending nasty letters to the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Allies group will solve anything — but neither will sending nasty letters to Campus Crusade for Christ or the College Republicans. Perhaps working toward a common goal of discussing, questioning and understanding would be an appropriate addi- tion to the speech code. Feelings are easy to hurt, and just because your feelings get hurt shouldn’t give you the right to sue — whichever side you’re on. A university should prepare us for the real world and the hard things out there — there are enough unanswerable ques- tions. If we can work together on campus, be it Georgia Tech or WSU, to solve those with an answer, it would bring us all one step closer to tolerance. By relaxing tolerance and political correctness standards, maybe we can find more com- Reporters — We need you! mon ground in the end.
