Profiles of Courage

I'm writing to praise the three students who wrote letters-to-the-editor against Jacob Silberberg's ice rink story ("Senators discuss possibility of ice rink," 2/7), the most controversial article the Daily has published, ever. These three wielded their words with such finesse, style, and grace, I'm intimidated and honored to have my name even remotely connected to their work. Silberberg's article quoted students who actually thought an ice rink on the residential quad was good idea. Then, three letter writers emerged and bravely went to bat for the greater good of humanity, Tufts University, and the freezing point of water.
