Letter From Daily Collegian - 2006

• Race Does Not Define Student
• Last Wednesday, while walking down College Avenue
  a young man yelled out of his pickup truck, quit
  looking at me n___. Now it must be said the
  concern is not whether or not I was looking at
  him but, rather, that he felt so comfortable to
  express his sentiments in such an open manner.
  And because he has been allowed to share his
  attitudes, I feel it only fair for me to be
  allowed to express mine. However, I assure you
  my comments will not be littered with negativity
  or racial remarks. To you, sir, whoever you may
  be, my name is not n___. My name is daughter,
  companion, niece, ally. I am an individual with
  an identity that has nothing to do with what you
  think represents black culture. By no means will
  I assume that your opinions are representative of
  the majority of Penn State students, many of whom
  I know as friends. And so in conclusion, dear
  sir, I hope that you feel better. I hope that
  youve gotten it out of your system. I will
  continue to live life unfazed by your opinions
  about me. My name is not n___. My name is
  friend, and perhaps one day you will see this.
  Junior, Political Science
