Fellow Students,

   The Denver Post has folks on campus selling newspaper subscriptions to
the Denver Post. The Post itself is a respectable paper and so are most of
those folks who are selling the subscriptions. BUT THERE ARE A FEW who are
claiming that the University of Colorado has paid for your subscription
and that all you're paying for is a delivery fee. THAT IS A LIE. Other
than selling permits for the Denver Post to operate on campus, the
University does not promote The Post and it has nothing to do with those
subscriptions.

   Unless there is a student discount involved, the price of a Post
subscription isn't any different than this 'delivery price' that these
couple of morons are claiming. They're just trying to trick you into
buying a subscription. If you like the Denver Post and that's what you
want to read... great. Just let it be known that the University has
nothing to do with your newspaper subscriptions and those individuals who
claim that it does are not employees of the University. If you come across
someone selling subscriptions to The Post by saying that the school paid
for it, please report them to the school administration, Campus Police,
and to the Denver Post.

   Thank you for your attention to this matter.
