Dear Mr. Heaton,

I found article on “Marriage debate not new one” to be offensive as well as distasteful. I am appalled at the bigotry that is allowed to displayed in the campus times newspaper.Who are you to decide who I marry? As well as, insult black women??

I find it ironic that there is an article about attracting minorities to attend UR. If you keep allowing this bigotry, you not only will have a problem attracting minorities to come to here, but also RETAINING the minorities that are presently students here.

Sincerely,A black woman that is happily enganged in a 3-year interracial relationship
