To the Editor:

The recent article and letter in The Dartmouth about the Hovey murals ("Thayer likely to be torn down by 2010," Feb. 28; "Racism and the Hovey Murals," Mar. 7) suggested that they may be destroyed. This is not correct, as it has already been determined that the murals are important cultural artifacts of Dartmouth's history and will be saved. As of this date, a committee is in the process of being formed under the direction of the Provost's office to consider how best to remove and preserve them.
