A Travesty
By Jay Park | May 9, 2001To the Editor: On May 2nd, I had to endure reading The Dartmouth's headline "Tri Kap confronts its Asian image," as if an Asian image is such a horrible thing that Tri Kap or any other group would surely want to "confront" it, and then an article by an Asian male (Derek Lee '01) with such a narrow view on race relations that he actually defends an article in the Harvard Crimson that is patently ignorant, inflammatory and just plain stupid in every regard. I would expect the usually responsible editors of The Dartmouth to have slightly more judgment in their selection of a headline -- the op-ed article was too filled with stupidity for me to even respond in great detail. To think that these fools like Derek Lee and Justin Fong wonder why Asians or members of any other minority group somehow choose to stick together.
