It's The Issue That Counts — It's The Language That Counts, Phil Mace

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Editorial reaction to language included in the feature story, "Gay Lib. Spokeswoman" which appears in the 1973-04-12 issue of The Maine Campus. There are over 400,000 words in the English language. It is ridiculous to segregate seven, eight, or nine—or even one—of them as totally unsuitable for use in a newspaper. Acting as if certain four-letter words do not exist only adds to the titillating air that surrounds them when they do appear—as they will.

Correspondence From A Umaine Alumnus, Name Redacted, Howard R. Neville

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Handwritten, one-and-a half-page letter from a UMaine alumnus located in Michigan denouncing the University's position regarding the Wilde-Stein Club and "gay symposium." Transcription: March 24, 1973 Gentlemen, For many years I contributed to the Alumni Fund but I find it impossible to do anymore. Although I have not lived in the state since graduation, I have been kept informed. What I have heard, I do not agree with. The policy changes at the U of M, during recent years, are not ones that I in any way can support. The Homosexual Convention was the last straw. You can cross me …
