A Self-Righteous Exhibition

“Civility, respect, tolerance. These were the themes driven home to members of the Class of 2019,” PAW wrote (On the Campus, July 10). They didn’t all get the message, as evidenced by the disgusting image of students turning their backs toward the Baccalaureate speaker. Many of us see this as a self-righteous exhibition of a sense of moral superiority, ironically displayed in the Chapel. George Will *68 thanked the students, “including those who have helped to ... illustrate some of my points” — described by PAW as “a comment that some students took as a direct swipe at them.” 

Perfect. Well deserved.
