To the Editor:
Brown applauds its student-athletes, devoting an entire glossy sports newsletter to these deserving students. It is high time that similar publicity be given to those students who are concerned with improving the life of people struggling to simply put food on the table day to day. The latest example is Stoni Tomson's '15 column ("Terminate Adidas contract now," Oct. 17) representing the Student Labor Alliance and discussing Adidas' shameful treatment of its former employees. Student activism of this nature is a vital part of the educational experience at Brown and should be highlighted just as our athletic experiences are. Maybe the Swearer Center for Public Service could learn from the Brown Sports Foundation about how to attract the Brown community's attention and encourage even more Tomsons to step up.
