Dear Editor:

In response to the article covering the Ultimate Saluki Challenge, I want to express my disappointment in the Daily Egyptian. One would anticipate that an event so unique, held on campus and that lasted for three days would merit more than one picture and barely half a page of total text.

Wouldn’t a picture of the winner be appropriate? Other than the few individuals that were quoted in the article, does the Daily Egyptian audience know who the sixteen participants were? Being a participant myself, I look back on the weekend as an experience of a lifetime and find it disheartening that other news media in southern Illinois covered and published more than my school newspaper.

I urge the Daily Egyptian to take a more active role in covering on campus events in the future and want to express my congratulations to: Priciliano Fabian, Joseph Batir, Sarah Roth, Allie McCreary, Steven Willi, Andrew Santiago, Randy Champion, Kevin Hennelly, Ryan Hoyt, Casey Fabianski, James Wieman, Payton Thompson, Sarah Attutis, Elizabeth Gazdziak and winner of the Ultimate Saluki Challenge, Justin Miller.
