To the editor:As a graduate of Southeast Missouri State University, I thank God that I was able to have many professors who were not narrow-minded and dared to teach us to think out of the box. These are the teachers who train minds who can lead nations and create inventions for the common good. I think the names Lenin, Marx and Himmler used against the university teachers is inappropriate at best.
Shame on all those who hide behind name-calling in the name of propriety. The biggest bully in grade school was always the loudest. Isn't it odd how so many grown-ups carry into adulthood the bad habits of the playground that should have been outgrown?
