To Ed.-in-Chief Zack Rothman, News Ed. Alexandra Figares, and Op-Ed. Bruno Halpern, Eagle News, Florida Gulf Coast University:  

Well, vigorous debate is a good thing!  Hopefully, you might publish the attached cartoon I just sketched on one of your professors… or is the “White Racism” issue now hermetically closed at FGCU?  Please do let me know of your decision.  Thanks!

Hello George,

Unfortunately, since we're a student newspaper and are only able to publish student work, we won't be able to use your cartoon. However, we do accept letters to the editor from non-students. You're more than welcome to submit one.

Best,

Zack Rothman

Hi Zack,
Thanks for the response!  I just posted the cartoon here: http://wwwtheamericandissidentorg.blogspot.com/2017/12/dr-ted-thornhill.html
Feel free to share it.  Someone besides me ought to shake Thornhill up a bit and bring his attention to the privilege and cocoon status of his position!  Alas...
