To the editors:
I would like to clarify that I, the girl pictured alongside the article "Yellow Fever" in yesterday's issue of Fifteen Minutes, was not consulted prior to the use of my likeness. I realize that the image published was a file photo, but common courtesy dictates that a person should be notified before her face is plastered next to an article with such questionable and potentially offensive content. The decent thing would have been to let me know beforehand about my impending status as the new poster child for the Asian fetish.
It should also be known that my boyfriend does not love me because I am "mysterious" or because I embody "an element of unattainability." He loves me for qualities that transcend the color of my skin: striking good looks, effervescent charm and, of course, abundant humility. SHARON C. YANG '98 March 19, 1998
The writer was an associate editor of Fifteen Minutes in 1997.
