Callous Reporting

To the Editors of The Crimson:

Your reporting of the recent death of Maria E. Psychas '90 was nothing short of callous ["Cabot House Senior Dies After Battling Illness," Feb. 13]. As residents of Cabot House and members of the Harvard community, we are dismayed by the poor taste The Crimson showed, particularly in the headline and in the first sentence of the story. We hope that in the future the Crimson will exercise better judgment in handling stories of this nature. Stephen C. Brown '91   Neil S. Segall '90-91
