Now imagine that's your name printed 10,000 times over in the University's daily newspaper. Nobody, regardless of the circumstances, wants to see his name in that headline. Journalists, on the other hand, must constantly consider the circumstances related to their stories, especially when someone's name is on the line.
Fair play is an honorable virtue in the realm of printed words.
Unfortunately, Monday's Cavalier Daily offered a careless front-page headline and story for thousands of readers to see. Those teachers would have more than a few ready-made lesson plans in how not to report. First, Monday's article shows little regard for the importance of headlines. Bold-faced words broadcast on the strongest possible frequency. They deserve respect and the most delicate handling.
