TO THE EDITOR:
One phrase in yesterday’s story about the “letter” criticizing UNC’s handling of the “scandal” uses a phrase that is more accurate than any I have seen so far in the Raleigh News and Observer. The DTH calls the letter signers “a collection of 32 retired faculty.” That’s what the group is — a collection. While I’m incensed at what has transpired and I support anyone’s saying what he or she wishes to, they write too broadly and fail to account for any change or improvement in recent months. How might they feel if a summary of their accomplishments was limited to what they did their first few years of teaching and nothing more?
