University of Virginia Library

Dear Sir:

I do not know who was
responsible for the editorial in
Thursday's Cavalier Daily, but I
wish to thank him for pointing out
a few of the many weaknesses of
the fraternity system here at U.Va.
A large segment of students have
been voicing similar opinions for
quite some time, and have been
dismissed as being "Wide-eyed radicals,"
intent on destroying Mr.
Jefferson's University and its fine,
gentile traditions.

Your staff will undoubtedly
receive many letters, such as Mr.
Blumberg's telling you that your
editorial policy is rubbish, and just
what you may do with your
opinions. I would hope that this
letter will encourage those who are
in agreement with your views, not
only on matters concerning the
University, but also the community
and nation, to give you their
support.
