Make a TV show To the Editor: As a producer on UTV, I strongly disagree with Ali Jackson's sentiments on the supposedly bland content of UTV ("After a show crossed the line, UTV lost its edge," DP, 10/9/06).

Keep the rink To the Editor: I appreciate the awareness of Penn's hockey programs raised by the article ("A team on ice," DP, 10/3/06) on the Class of 1923 ice rink.

Those who are planning the eastward extensions of campus need to be approached now - rather than when it is too late - about changing their plans for the ice rink.
