William A. Sederburg
President, Utah Valley State College

Dear President Sederburg,

The messages an institution like Utah Valley State College sends are important. They act as cues to the public about what kind of thinking is acceptable. You failed the public two years ago when your college sent an inappropriate message to those who look to you for guidance. I'm referring to the decision to allow the dissenter, Michael Moore, to speak at your school. By doing so, you abetted those who would disagree with Our Leader's policies. You blessed dissent with the stamp of academic approval.

Thank God the legislature sent the citizens of Utah an even more important message. A message that those who allow dissent to occur will be punished. Their budgetary retaliation against USVC did not go unnoticed.

Now it appears that you've learned your lesson. When the play, The [v-word] Monologues, came to your campus, it had a new, less offensive title. Indeed, you decreed that it be shortened to "The Monologues." By purging the v-word, the very word upon which the play is built, you sent a very important message to the young not-boys of your state. You told them that their not-boy parts are a source of shame. You taught them to disassociate themselves from the part of their body that God created for their future husbands' exclusive use.

I'm sure the state legislature approves.

Heterosexually yours,

Gen. JC Christian, patriot
