Tresser Blvd. Stamford,
CT 06901 Dear
Editor: I read with some concern
the Associated Press article in Sunday, May 12, 2002 issue of your
paper. The article spoke of student
and faculty reaction to an undercover police officer registering as a student
on the campus of the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. The students and faculty asked the
question: “Who can you trust?” That
is a good question but it was addressed to the wrong subject. It would not have been necessary for the
police to go under cover on the campus if students could be trusted to obey
the law and not use drugs. I am
concerned that a faculty member spoke out in support of the students |
instead of the police. What is happening to our college campuses and to our society when students and faculty make those who are seeking to do good look bad and those who are doing wrong look like they are right. This reminds me of a passage of Scripture recorded in Isaiah 5:20-21 (N.I.V.) “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.” If we would return to Biblical Morality our thinking would be corrected and we would not condone evil and criticize the good. Respectfully, Rev. Dr. Anthony L. Gibson Pastor |
