Jimmy Carter was on campus to receive an award as part of the Albert Schweitzer Institute’s activities. Our student paper led with a quote from one of our students who attended Carter’s speech:
“I am an advocate of war, but after hearing his speech, I do not understand why people would ever want the use of nuclear weapons,” said Carley Shimkus, a junior journalism major.
I was floored when I read that. Did one of our students actually say “I am an advocate of war.” Who says that?
Update (Oct 12): Be sure to see Carley’s reaction in the comments below.
A big fan of war?
