Laws Made to Prevent Hysteria
To the Editors:

When I read Benjamin Joffe-Walt’s letter, printed in the Feb. 8 edition of The Oberlin Review, I was very troubled. I am a freshman and I lack Joffe-Walt’s four years of experience with the college administration, so I have nothing comparable to the specific cases and personal experience he cites. However, some of Joffe-Walt’s ideas strike me as dangerous and ultimately undefendable.
