What's Your Point?
By Fred Meyer | February 1, 2008To the Editor: Mr. Ballou's editorial ("Tag, We're 'It'," Jan. 29) was pointless. He claims to have written about the increase in admissions applications to Dartmouth because "I have to write about something or other, and sorority rush inspires me even less." Mr. Ballou is a regular columnist for The Dartmouth, a responsibility he values "for the most part... as an opportunity to promote hate and dissent among the Dartmouth undergraduate population." Mr. Ballou's sarcastic tone cannot change the fact that he is failing in his role as an editorialist.
