Inquirer readers on the value of student newspapers and the legacy of the city's former medical examiner Haresh Mirchandani.
Philly changed the way the world views heat disasters and may have saved thousands of lives
,” thank you for remembering Haresh Mirchandani, who defended his groundbreaking decision to add “heat-related deaths” to the lexicon of causes of mortality. I was privileged to have been the health commissioner during part of his tenure as Philadelphia’s medical examiner. The city’s rowhouses, with black rooftops and closed windows, became the equivalent of brick ovens during heat waves.
Complementing the contributions made by Philadelphia’s Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression , the SPLC has led state-based activists striving to frame and pass New Voices laws in support of student expression. In March, West Virginia became the 17th state to approve such legislation. Ten other states, including Pennsylvania, are working on similar laws. The student press deserves encouragement and public support.
