In your feature, "Students Ride With Ambulances, Give Medical Care," you say "the students they pick up tend to act just as stupidly as any other Cambridge resident." As a student who also happens to be a Cambridge resident I find the implications of this statement offensive. I think you should be more careful scanning your articles for possible insensitive and stupid comments.
I also was a bit shocked by how glib all of the quotes in the article were. Do participants in this program really believe that riding in an ambulance is "playing in the street?" I understand how it can be an exciting and even enjoyable experience, but I am glad that I never had to be picked up by an ambulance carrying a Harvard student out for "a lot of fun" and "more trauma." --Emily Gregory '00
