Letters to the Feditors


Peasants,

I admit it, I  haven't read David Horowitz's book about how Columbia is a haven for Jews and communists and communist Jews.  However, I feel safe saying that Horowitz probably left out a few of Columbia's most dangerous professors.  So, without further ado, I present to you Columbia's Most Dangerous Math and Science Professors Who Have Given Me Bad Grades.

Stats prof G. Gallego is obviously an agent of the terrorists.  Because he is an enemy of freedom, I never went to class, so as to avoid becoming infected with his vicious rhetoric.  And that, potential employers, is why I got a C- in my intro statistics class: because I love America.

CompSci prof A. Aho is Canadian.  This enemy from the North "teaches" programming languages.  I suspect he is actually gathering information in preparation for the Canuck invasion.  I warned him not to mess with the USA by doing poorly in his class.

Gateway instructor J. McGourty is probably on speed.  While his dangerous habits are not in and of themselves a threat to our freedom, his example has more than likely aggravated our "study aid" problem.

Calculus prof Stanislav Whatever-his-last-name-is pronouces his v's like w's and vice versa.  Or, as he would say, "wice-wersa".  Obviously, he is a communist, and that is why my Calc grades are dismal.

CompSci prof J. Gross  might seem like a bad Woody Allen impersonator, but don't let his affable exterior fool you.  He shot JFK, with help from Castro.  JFK would have wanted me to fail his tests, so I did.

The Fed-tator Sports Section

Met someone who i used to swim with at columbia and he mentioned winning a swim meet that i don't recall (imagine!).  Do you plan to extend your archives back to the late 70's?  If so, by when do you expect this to occur.
Thanks.

Eric,
  You have been terribly misled.  By whom, I cannot say.  I doubt The Fed has ever seriously covered sports, much less ones that no one cares about, like swimming.  Oops, caught myself lifting opinions from the Spec editorial page again.  Bastards.

The Fed is not Nightline

Dear The Fed,
I am currently looking to do research on the matter of high student suicide rates for a psych class.  I was wondering If there were any sources (i.e. books, journals, etc..) that would point me in the right direction for this research.  Please email me at c***@iona.edu if you know of anything.  Thanks.
Cheyne

Cheyne,
  Columbia just isn't the suicide powerhouse it used to be.  It is with a heavy heart that I must direct you to NYU.  I hear their Bobst Library is a great place to start.
Good Luck,
-Sam Jenning, EIC
