Letter to the Editor: Making the Grade
In regards to the article published on Monday, Feb. 21, 2011, titled “Making the Grade” by Jackie Wallentin on the front page of The Times-Delphic; I came across a discrepancy in the first paragraph of the story: “Facility Services shined doorknobs, and wiped down computer keyboards.”
The second part of this statement is false. I am the one who cleans the computers and wipes the keyboards as it is in my job description as Assistant Technical Engineer under the Head Technical Engineer Jeff Nichols.
So in regards to giving false credit, I respectfully ask you to properly give credit to the correct source: me.
Thank you for your time,
Jason Miller

Wow, way to be petty!
Good article, Jackie!
Did Jason Miller check with Facility Services to see if they did or did not also clean the computer keyboards? If I am correct, he is also a journalism student and should do fact checking of his own before making such corrections.
Jackie Wallentin is very talented young journalist. To critique her article like this is not only rude, but not relevant.
Not attacking the Journalist Jackie, I would agree with your statement that Jackie Wallentin is a very talented young journalist’s, and in fact one of the best at Drake. However sometimes people loose sleep over the irrelevant things in life that are jokes. A claim to my fame of cleaning keyboards, in no way do I hope you have perceived that this was an attack at Jackie, if so then you are simple a fool.
