I'm baffled as to why the Exponent would actually insert such trashy propaganda into its pages. I'm referring to the biased, down-right foolish booklet from humanlife.org that I found in my Exponent this Tuesday. I'm used to finding the weekly Arby's coupon, or sometimes a Geico ad every day before I rip out the coveted crossword and Sudoku. However, for some reason unbeknownst to me, I found this fodder from humanlife.org in my Exponent. This makes me absolutely sick knowing the Exponent willingly accepted this garbage for an insert. Push your moral propaganda somewhere else; don't pollute this university with it. Passages comparing the act of abortion to slavery, and quotes like, "In choosing to abort, to kill the innocent child growing within me, I lowered myself to the level of the rapist ... " were in my newspaper. Oh, and don't even think about having premarital sex, science says that it's damaging to you, and your relationships. I've never been more ashamed to be a student here. Expletives aside, shame on the Exponent and shame on humanlife.org for trying to peddle this crap the students.
