Cheap Thrill in Bad Taste

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

To the editors:

I found "Just a Squirrel Tryin' to Get a Nut" (Fifteen Minutes, Nov. 5) to be in very poor taste. Alicia A. Carrasquillo '00 and Avra van der Zee '02 portray Wellesley women as self-loathing desperate individuals who will engage in casual sexual encounters for reasons as empty as avoiding cab fare home.

This may very well be true, but at least they're not two lonely Harvard pseudo-journalists trying to get a cheap thrill out of impersonating said self-loathing, desperate individuals and then trying to justify their behavior with a brief round of dim-witted self-righteousness.
