Description
-
Columnist Klos asserts that Alan Gribben is "not worth the effort" of hating or loving, because he is interested in self-promotion more than any real political or apolitical ideology.
Conner, a former PhD candidate in the UT English department, writes to agree with Gribben about the department's lack of tolerance for different viewpoints. He recounts that, as an out LGBT student activist, he was treated cruelly and discriminatorily by English department faculty and eventually forced to withdraw from the program.
