To the Editor:
Upon learning of the backlash against people who resemble our stereotypical image of a Muslim, many students across the country have wondered, "What can we do? How can we support those who are coming under attack or are in fear?"
I have always been a staunch defender of the free press and of the proliferation of 24-hour news networks. In recent years, the media seems to have taken the place of idle investigators in many of the nation's most closely watched stories. In both the recent Chandra Levy disappearance (remember that?) and the investigation and subsequent impeachment of President Clinton, the press actually assisted what appeared to be incompetent law enforcement and justice department officials by breaking stories and extracting additional evidence from key witnesses. Although constant coverage of these stories may have made us all nauseous, it did help to propel the stories forward. For most Americans, these relatively trivial occurrences became a daily soap opera, with episodes being broadcast continually throughout the day whether or not there was any new information to talk about. Now that the news channels have the task of informing America about continuing threats to our livelihood as well as our military efforts abroad, it appears we have created a monster.
These are troubled times, it's true. Our ideas and preconceptions are constantly challenged; our prejudices are being dragged out into the unforgiving light of truth. With this in mind, we should recognize the importance of not merely tolerating those who are different from us, but accepting them completely and loving them as we would our brothers and sisters. However dissimilar from ourselves these people may seem on the outside, they are just as capable of decency and worthy of respect on the inside as we are.

The Dartmouth Men's Rugby team enters the Northeastern playoffs this weekend as the third seed in its division. The Big Green will travel to play SUNY-Buffalo in what should be a hard-hitting game. A win and their season is extended. A loss and the DRFC packs up and comes home to await next season.

Some may say that Sunday's Ivy League soccer matchup (1:30 p.m., Chase Field) between the Dartmouth Big Green and the Cornell Big Red means nothing. They would say both teams are mired in the basement of the Ancient Eight with no chance of the postseason. Those people are wrong.
Tomorrow's field hockey game (11 a.m., Scully-Fahey Field) is a tale of two clashing colors.
