Orthodox students
share tradition
I’d like to respond to Mason
Jackson’s article on Orthodox Jews.
I happen to classify myself as Or
thodox and I found many of his
comments to be rude and unnec
essary.
I know that many Battalion
writers search for items that will
stir up outrage and commentary,
but I'd like to ask Mason to keep
his Antisemitic comments to him
self. Orthodox Judaism is based on
a shared tradition of thousands of
years. We, especially as Aggies,
should have enough respect not to
mock them for keeping kosher or
keeping the Sabbath (the 11th
Commandment jokingly referred
to is the “thou shall not work on
Sabbath”).
Perhaps it is not too farfetched
to believe that the Orthodox stu
dents went to Yale to get an excel
lent education rather than “an en
riching experience...where men
and women learn to cope with one
another.”

Film society not a
favorable option
In response to Brent Troyan’s Oct. 1
mail call:
Are you kidding me? College
Park 6 comes about and you feel
the need to advertise the MSC
Film Society in the Mail Call? Are
you trying to compare yourself to
a movie theater?
I’ve made the mistake of at
tending a flick at Rudder before.
First of all, the screen is about 10
times too big for the picture,
which wouldn’t be so bad if the
sound weren’t so lame.
It was like somebody pressed
play on a jam-box set up behind
the screen.
And then there is the “My heart
bleeds maroon” section of Aggies]
who feel the need to whoop
throughout the whole movie. It' s
about time a dollar movie theater
sprang up around here.
Oh yeah, where is your pop
corn stand?
