In response to David Kelly's letter to the editor, the Collegian does not censor students. It facilitates free speech by saying, "Your ideas can have some space here for free, but they must be a certain size, and we edit the letter so you don’t look like an idiot — however hard that may be."

If your ideas are so underrepresented, Mr. Kelly, start your own publication. Start a Web site, a newsletter or a literary magazine. Take some initiative if you really have something to say.
