Brown University

To the Editors of The Crimson:

I object to Craig Lerner's derisive characterization of Brown University in his March 16 opinion piece. In trying to make his point about the demise of liberal education he not only insults Brown inappropriately but does not even any relevant information about the University or its academic policies. Instead he sensationalizes his story with a crass example. To characterize academic standards as "idiocy" and to link approval of a new concentration to "idiocy" evidenced by "extracurricular prostitution" is outrageous. I find this article offensive and in poor taste. Carol R. Rakatansky, M. Ed. '87   Brown University '85
