Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor,
For the past couple of weeks I have been reading The Colonnade in order to see if anything about the Third Annual Charity Drag Show had been published. I can understand that the Friday, March 13 issue would have not had it as the Drag Show was that day; however, what I cannot understand is how nothing, not one single word, was mentioned in the past two issues (over a full month later). I talked with the reporter that was there and she said that the reason it was not in the issue following, April 3, was because there was not enough room. That is understandable and I was hoping to see something in this past issue, April 10. However, I did not.
There was nothing in the features section but a story that does not directly affect this school on the front page. The story that I am referring to is “Earthquake.” This story does not directly affect our lives here at college when it only affected Lake Sinclair. Students may have been there but what about the activities on campus that students also go to, do they not deserve the same respect and time?
I also would like to point out that our drag show was for charity. We were raising money for other programs that need it. We would like more people to come next year and help support whatever charity we may donate to, but we cannot do that if we do not have any publicity on it from the past years. You have a broad spectrum of readers that I am sure would be willing to help a good cause while also have fun doing it. So please, help us help other people around this community and throughout our state by publishing about the Pride Alliance’s Third Annual Charity Drag Show.
