Driskell said there has been an unfortunate lack of communication on the issue.
"I want to understand exactly where they're coming from, and they need to know where I'm coming from," she said.
Letalien and other sponsors of the Burton impeachment petition agreed that if Driskell were to apologize for suggesting that the impeachment was racially motivated, everyone would be able to move on.
"The best thing would be for Fentrice to just apologize," said Kyle D. Hawkins '02, who declined to sponsor Letalien's censure motion yesterday. "That would solve all the problems."
Michael D. Shumsky '00, who also received Letalien's e-mail message, agreed with Letalien that "the use of the race card was shameful."
But he said he wasn't sure whether it would be best to censure Driskell, to have her apologize or to ignore the issue and let it go away.
Frank X. Leonard '01, one of the prosecutors in Burton's impeachment, said he will not support Letalien's resolution either.
