Message-Id: <200105011646.MAA29395@dew-ref-2.mit.edu> To: mit-talk@MIT.EDU Date: Tue, 01 May 2001 12:46:39 -0400 From: Victoria K Anderson <vkanders@MIT.EDU> ...and calm down (even though it's the end of the term) I'm quite concerned about how the conversation on this list is quickly decreasing in quality. Diversity is obviously a big issue on this campus, and in order for us to best address it, we need to have a good dialogue among the student body about what we want to do and how we want to see this issue addressed. I'm worried that the insults and personal attacks on this list are hindering this conversation, and I'm also worried that if we continue in this direction, we'll see a decrease in the quality of dialogue on mit-talk in general. I know many people who have started to completely ignore this list, and that shouldn't happen. We need people to think about all issues that we discuss on this list, particualrily diversity right now, and if people ignore the list, that will become difficult. So please. Calm down, and be the stronger person. Don't respond to a personal attack to all 300+ of us. Ultimately, this will improve discussion about diversity and I know that many people (including myself) would have a great deal of respect for anybody who does that. -Victoria
