David Isgur, University spokesman, was quoted in a Hartford Courant story on campus security on Oct. 24. Isgur said "To most colleges' credit, we err on the side of being open because that is part of our function - for the open exchange of ideas and thoughts. It's hard to encourage that while at the same time setting up fortress walls around you." Read the story on courant.com.
Randi Ashton-Pritting, director of University Libraries, was quoted in the New Haven Register on Oct. 22. She commented on the debate over whether the Cheshire town library should ban a book about the Petit family murders in that town. Ashton-Pritting, who also serves on the board of the Connecticut Library Consortium, said "...we watch any sort of censorship very closely, and it is still our position that it is a library's job to stock books of all types and then it's up to the citizens of a community to decide whether they want to read it or not. Any book, including this one, might provide information that people feel they need to know." Read the article on nhregister.com.
