To the Editor:
Dan Kleinman's affront regarding the assistant librarian's response to a man fondling himself in Berry was right on the money (The Dartmouth, Aug. 12); his calls for "constitutionally-approved internet filters" go over the top.
All the College needs is a common sense policy. Although the Supreme Court has upheld every American's inalienable right to view Asian transvestite porn in a public setting, and Katherine McNabb '06 asks us not to "yuck somebody else's yum," I'm confident that no one is finding "yum" in a middle-aged man having a mnage--one in a public library.
The open-door policy of the Dartmouth College Library allows anyone from the greater Hanover community to come in, including young children. There are plenty of simple measures that can be taken to prevent such indecent behavior without violating anyone's constitutional rights.
