Shocked by your astrology page ! (to RIC.edu)

 I'll defend the right of a college newspaper to wallow in the

    most controversial ideas and opinions. But as a visitor to your campus

    tonight, I was shocked to pick up " The Anchor " and discover a full

    page devoted to horoscopes - to that astrological rubbish, of no

    educational value whatsoever. I would prefer to see hard core porn in

    your college paper than New Age drivel .

           How many college kids take this crap seriously ? May I recommend

    that they acquaint themselves with basic SCIENCE , with the popular

    writings of Isaac Asimov and Carl Sagan -who dedicated their whole lives

    to the god of REASON . Wrote Asimov : " I will never kiss the ugly face

    of ignorance !  "
