OUST UH STUDENTS WHO TEST POSITIVE

In regard to your Oct. 13 story, "Gone too soon": The onus is on the back of
the University of Hawai'i. But not for having a student die from a toxic mix
of alcohol and methadone. UH should be required to step forward and
permanently terminate all students who at any time check positive with any
drugs. Period.

All addictive drugs are defined by the medical profession as "mind
altering." Thus, in Math QED, all students on any drug are already, or have
already, started deteriorating their brain system. Why waste good money,
time and space on students who knowingly have decided to blow their brains
into uselessness when there are undoubtedly other prospective students in
line to step in and fill the gaps?

If they check positive on any drugs, throw the buggahs out -- permanently --
and have the next applicants step forward.
