To the Editor:
Ethan Tobias' column ("What Toyota can teach Brown," Feb. 11) sadly condones the continued race of colleges and universities to compete on the basis of country club-like amenities. Brown's reputation is built not on newspapers and paninis, but rather the quality of its faculty and students. Instead of lamenting the loss of shiny new buildings and luxuries we can reasonably forgo, let's insist that Brown maintain or increase financial aid, BIAP funding, and faculty and staff positions.
