COMMENTARY
Letter rebuttal missed the point
Muslim Muhamad Haydar disliked Jim Peterson's thought that Muslims who kill innocent civilians are welcomed into heaven in his letter to the editor "Alumnus wrong about Muslims" (SN 9/8).

Show fall spirit by costume-dressing
I agree with Tina Reed's column "Take time to participate in splendors of fall" (SN 9/16). I think fall is a great season and I think Halloween is a great holiday.
