Show O H Too Student Offended by Publication of Beer Brewing Article Dear vear Ed Hor Two weeks ago you printed an article concerning making your own j beer I personally could not understand understand understand under under- stand why this story was printed in inthe inthe inthe the first place As a full time student at I have noticed several noticed several campaigns on campus against the use of alcohol as well as several services services services ser ser- ser ser- vices that are offered for the prevention prevention prevention tion of alcoholism We even have an Alcoholics Anonymous Counseling available on campus I guess my question is Why would the Horizon publish a story encouraging students to learn how to tomake tomake tomake make their own beer while there is such a strong campaign going against alcoholism here on campus campus campus cam cam- pus I began to wonder if it was just a judgement error or what on the advisors part The Horizon says that it will never ad advertise vertise for alcoholic beverages in its paper but this story was an advertisement in a round roundabout roundabout roundabout about way for someone who makes his own beer and sells equipment and supplies for anyone else to buy and make their own beer This was an advertisement for this mans man's business business business busi busi- ness establishment I was offended by the audacity of the Horizon to publish this story during the campaign against alcoholism alcoholism al alcoholism al- al that Bacchus was launching launching launching launch launch- ing that week In fact you had an advertisement advertisement advertisement ad ad- for Bacchus two pages over from the other story Wouldn't you say that this is somewhat like cutting off your nose to spite your face I wonder if the staff of the Horizon has no moral standards at all Maybe you should pay closer attention to the kinds of stories that are submitted to you for publication Nelda Mcdonald Office Management Major |
