We read with interest Todd Knobel's
ecluan (Daly Nebrsshan, April 1 5) regard
ing the invalidity of Greek stereotypes. We
agree that .there are many unfortunate
Greek stereotypes We were shocked and
'&smeyed, however, to sse the psrpstus
ticn fan old residence hall stereotype in
. his c c!';n. Knchel wrcte, "No orie denies
residence hill cr off-campus students the
right to vote or run for cSice. They s'siply
did not show as much interest ia the ec
tion." This is blatantly untree. "
