Inside
- All the wrong reasons (By Tom Haight Assistant Design Manager)
When I read the title of Susan Sprecher's letter to the editor Monday, "Benefits of Cloning People," I was infused with such thoughts as being able to selectively clone specific organs for transplant or other useful applications of the science.

- Voicing opinions on ad decision (Editor's Note: )
Editor's Note:
- Voicing opinions on ad decision Don't edit ideas (Joseph M. Powers associate professor, aerospace and mechancial engineering)
I disagree with your decision not to print the recent submission of Mr. David Horowitz. Indeed, as you argue in your letter Thursday, The Observer has a right to control its content. You have done what editors must do: edit. This, after all, is nothing but a legitimate form of censorship used by all newspapers every day.
- Voicing opinions on ad decision Observer response ignores ad's text (Dan Delgado class of '97)
The Observer staff stated: "In truth, the decision regarding whether to print the advertisement is not a free speech issue." They are absolutely right. How can it be about the free speech when, instead, The Observer chose to focus on Mr. Horowitz and his "tactics?"
