    "God only knows what is to happen. I see nothing impossible in that supposition. And I see things wonderfully contrived sometimes to make us happy. Where could they find such objects as in America for the exercise of their enchanting art? Especially the lady, who paints landscapes so inimirably. She wants only subjects worthy of immortality to render her pencil immortal. " --Thomas Jefferson, A Dialogue Between The Head and The Heart

    FIRST AMENDMENT FIASCO

    The student press was dealt a severe blow early this month when administrators at Craven Community College in New Bern, N.C. forced the censorship of an article in the Campus Communicator, a 1,100-circulation student newspaper of which I serve as editor.

    One story has already been printed in a local boating newspaper, which I have linked to below. I'll post more as other media outlets continue to cover the censorship and the resultant backlash.
