Letters to the Editor

It should be noted that Dan Tapiero’s BA ’90, MA ’91,  and 1989 Associate Managing Editor of the Herald, Oct. 22 letter in The Herald was sprinkled with rose-colored views of a mythical Brown University.

I appreciated The Herald’s coverage of my “Family Weekend” lecture on the protest movement in Hong Kong. 

As an ex-managing editor of the Brown Daily Herald, it is with great sadness and embarrassment that I read the Sept. 12 op-ed “Warren Kanders still must go” and the validating Editorial Page Board follow-up comment Sept. 23.

In his Oct. 11 column, Andrew Reed ’21 writes, “But there are hundreds or perhaps thousands of companies whose products serve a critical role in the mission of ICE.”

To the Editor: I am writing with regard to The Herald’s article on Brown’s response to derecognized group activity. I would like to challenge the Office of Student Conduct & Community Standards to reconsider its guidelines on student affiliation with derecognized groups.

To the Editor: Thank you for highlighting the performance of the Brown endowment for fiscal year 2019 in your editorial on Oct. 4.

I write to support and extend E.L Meszaros GS’ recent column “Increase Training in Public Scholarship.”

It’s hard to describe how we felt when we first heard that the First Readings assignment would be The Idiot.

To the Editor: My name is Chun Cheng, and I am a Brown alum that just graduated a few months ago. I am writing regarding an article I saw in The Herald.

The University’s decision to place Director of Development for Computer and Data Science Initiatives Peter Cohen on academic leave in the wake of reports that he helped conceal Jeffrey Epstein’s donations to Massachusetts Institute of Technology raises a broader issue.
