Dear Editor: As a Hmong man, I do not feel that law Professor Leonard Kaplan said anything that is “hateful.” I think what he said might have been misinterpreted by the students in his classroom.
There are times when people take what is said and hear what they think is being said. I truly think that if statements of this magnitude were made in the classroom, the students should have addressed the issue with Professor Kaplan in the classroom. The class should have asked for clarification of what he meant by what he said there and then.
