'Corner' prevents spread of speakers

Editor:

This is a letter concerning Matt Woods' "Mall preachers disturb student peace" (April 5). The first thing that I have to ask Matt is, why can't you find some other piece of grass to sit and study on? There is a great spot west of the Franklin Building. The Speaker's Corner is designed so that the "speakers" have an area that they can use, where it is understood that they can be loud and obnoxious. This prevents them from taking over all the grassy spaces with their bantering. Whereas they cannot move, you can. There is more to the Mall than just the section in front of the Student Union, go find it.
