Second Printer Refuses Legacy

The (Louisiana State University) magazine hit another snag Thursday when Mele Printing (Covington, LA) also declined to publish Legacy for the same reason—a sexual article titled “Kink” that the company claimed conflicted with its Christian values. “Mele Printing reserves the right not to print material that glorifies pornography, abortion or sexual behavior that is in opposition of our morals,” an official from the company wrote in an e-mail to Bob Ritter, director of Student Media.

Marie Frank, the University’s chief procurement officer, said the Office of Procurement Services is obtaining a quote from Ricoh to print Legacy.
