Sorry, Nancy, but I have to disagree with you concerning the value of the

It's not that I see it as either totally accurate or a way of defining

One of members of the Board of Trustees objects to the phrase "tolerance
for diversity"in the mission statement of the college.

of lifestyles and ideas.
