The opening of Paresky Commons filled students with opinions, most positive, yet some critical. But due to a lack of balance in recent articles printed in The Phillipian, it would appear as though student sentiment was solely negative. The first and foremost mission of any newspaper is to provide accurate and balanced coverage, and unfortunately, The Phillipian did not meet this standard in its coverage of Paresky Commons’ opening. I would like to apologize to the Commons staff for allowing the publication of biased reporting. And I would also like to apologize to Mr. David Paresky for any unintentional misrepresentation of your gift. Your considerable generosity has been and is appreciated by all. -Tim Ghosh Editor in Chief of The Phillipian Board CXXXII
