Plea in letter to Reporter may have been answered—track in old stadium now open for use

To the Editor:

A little more than a year ago, I wrote a letter to the Reporter complaining that I had been treated rudely by a UB police officer who prevented me from running on the track at the old UB stadium. I mentioned that it seemed ironic that my own university prevented me from exercising on the campus track when many other universities welcomed visitors to their own tracks and exercise facilities.

I am happy to say that someone seems to have listened to my complaint. This year, the old stadium track has been opened up for public use during daytime hours. I have used the track many times, and have noticed that I am not the only one. I would like to thank those involved, whoever they are, for opening up the track and making UB a healthier place.

Sincerely,
Brett W Pelham,
