The Washington Post
is against the University of California Hastings School of Law's ruling that all approved and school supported organizations be open to all of its students. That would just be wrong! How dare they? If you can't have cliques, what's the use of being orthodox?
As usual, I wrote a letter. As usual, it was ignored. Here it is:
The Post’s editorial against Hasting’s College of Law has two major logical flaws. First, it attempts to obfuscate reality with the last paragraph. It is quite appropriate to say that school funding is contingent on leaving an organization open to all students. Open means open. Students can take full part in those organizations. That means voting. Or is the Post a believer in Apartheid, that some members deserve to vote and others don’t?
Second, throughout the article it makes an analogy with Jewish and Muslim groups. However, it fails to address one question: How is it that Jews and Muslims are able to have group open to not only all Jewish and Muslim sects but to all students, but it’s somehow ok for a fundamentalist Christian group to not even allow Christians they disagree with to vote
