Continuing Debate: A Secular Holiday?

Ben Zavelsky (’12):
“I think that it should be religious; people should be able to express whatever they want: you have to weigh secularism and freedom of expression.”



Esther Lee (’11):
“It depends on what people want to do; you don’t have to keep it secular if you do."
Elsa Schultze (’10):
“I think you say what you say and you shouldn’t have to change it for anyone else: you can’t force people to express a holiday wish (just) so no one else gets their feelings hurt.”

Courtney Wynn (’09):
“I think people have a right to put up Christmas decorations: It’s freedom of expression and even freedom of religion.. It’s a beautiful time of year, and decorations just make it more beautiful.”
