| Show Letters to the Editor Wants basketball rumors addressed Dear Editor Over the past year and specifically during fall quarter there have been a lot lotof lotof lotof of rumor concerning the basketball team coach and the administrations administration's in in- Some of the facts have been printed in the Horizon the several assaults perpetuated perpetuated perpetuated per per- by some of the basketball basketball basketball bas bas- bas bas- players the recent arrest conviction and three year sentencing of one of the players and statements made by the coach What really concerns me is what administration is doing about the problem There are questions among the about what isn't being done and what should be done For example How are student funds being used in financing the Bruins How are the individual players chosen and what criteria are used in player selection ie i.e. academic record criminal record financial background etc What perks are the players receiving before and during their enrollment There are obviously problems but the important question is what specifically is being done to solve them I think that the administrators administrators administrators ad ad- responsible for forthe forthe forthe the Bruins including the coach should prepare a written written written writ writ- ten statement for publication in the Horizon that answers these questions The has a right to know where our money is going We have a right to pursue our education without the stresses of witnessing witnessing witnessing wit wit- assaults or worse yet the possibility of being assaulted assaulted assaulted as as- by a team member whose size alone is ing I feel that needs a basketball team and that the should lend its full support to the team Including including including in in- attendance at home games This is more likely to happen if the present problems are addressed and resolved Signed RJ RI Milligan |
