To the editors:
I am hoping to clarify a quotation which appeared in The Crimson (News, Apr. 2) concerning a student panel discussion on affirmative action. I believe that the quote which is attributed to me in the article is wholly inaccurate and certainly does not reflect my opinion on affirmative action and the capabilities of students of color. The abilities of students could never be ascertained by only considering race. No conscientious person could ever accept the statement that was attributed to me because it was without merit and factual basis. DIONNE A. FRASER '99 April 3, 1998
