Streakers at the University of Virginia and at the College of William and Mary have been, perhaps, more revealing than they intended (The Virginian-Pilot and The Ledger-Star, Oct. 10).
Despite being a Baptist minister, I make no strong recommendations about reproof for streakers in general; however, I do believe two of the offenders deserve swift response from the administrations of these two venerable institutions.
Let Kevin Finn of U.Va. and Terry Rogers of W&M, sophomores presumably having been exposed to freshman English and quoted in your article, be charged with indecent grammar and sentenced to five hours of naked study for using me as a subject pronoun. Me and my fellow rednecks from VPI think that dark days have descended upon both Mr. Jefferson's academic mother and his academic child.
