To the Editor: We are writing in response to the letter written by Mr. John Kelley regarding racism at Connecticut College. There are three points on which we differ with Mr. Kelley. First, Mr. Kelley states that racism exists on this campus, but he feels as though it should not be publicized because that will only "inflame" the problem. Publicizing racism is one of the first steps toward combatting it. We feel that it is impossible to combat racism in a concerted effort without full knowledge of the problem and its consequences. Second, Mr. Kelley states that Connecticut Filet-a-Seal College has "stressed open-mindedness and tolerance." It is not by Ted Nelson sumer, you can exert a great industry which is responsible clear to us towards whom Connecticut College has stressed All of us have, at one time, deal of influence on Canadian for killing over 15,000 seals in open-mindedness and tolerance.
