Letters to the Editor

Cartoon not journalistic quality, insensitive
In your Feb. 11 “Your View” column, the letter entitled, “Cartoon is degrading for minority students” is given a “standard” journalistic response, namely, “Cartoons ... do not necessarily represent the views of the Skiff editorial board.” This response however, does not address, nor does it apologize for, the insensitivity shown by the Skiff in its original publication of the offending cartoon. Journalists may well have the right to express whatever sentiment they prefer but editorial boards exist to make decisions on what to publish. Your “standard,” and in this context, flippant retort does no credit to the Skiff as a journalistic endeavor.
