TO THE EDITOR:
CUAB’s hosting of Dan Savage using student fees stands as an affront to the values held by this University.

Savage has a long record of using defamatory language to accomplish his goals. Savage once remarked that he wished that all Republicans were dead.

In addition, he holds responsibility for the filth that appears when Googling former Sen. Rick Santorum’s name.

This is not the kind of political dialogue that this University should promote.

As a student here and as a friend of Santorum, I am deeply offended that student funds are being used to allow Savage to address the UNC community and I call for the CUAB to cancel the event.
