Tutt's column presents offensive implications

Shame on Andrew Tutt for judging me and the entire student body for sleeping in on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day ("And the winner is...", Jan. 19). I did not sleep in on Martin Luther King Day. Granted, I did not attend any of the scheduled discussions; I find scheduled discussions about as celebratory as pulling teeth. Yet I did not attend any discussions on Christmas, either, and I still managed to celebrate it. I am not accountable to Tutt for how I chose to remember Dr. King, and I resent his implication that my failure to attend lectures all day Monday means that I consented to racism through apathy.

Shame on You, Tutt.
