OK, at the risk of sounding like an agitator, I'v encluded a copy of the letter I sent to URI,

If any of you feel like cutting and pasting it please feel free
:)
I emailed it to their post grad admissions (figured that's hurt most }:D ) as I couldn't find their proper faculty information:

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to you in regard to an article published by a student of your university in 1998. Kelly Holsopple published an article entitled "Stripclubs According to Strippers:
Exposing Workplace Sexual Violence" (http://www.uri.edu/artsci/wms/hughes/stripc1.htm).

Having attempted to contact her directly I have been advised that her email is no longer valid and thus have contacted your institution directly.

The article in question lacks substantial academic merit, but more importantly, I question Kelly's research and analysis methods and find her article to be substantially lacking in both. Her research, never fully detailed, fails to examine a broad research pool (she cites only 18 interviewees, and provides a vague at best and completely fabricated link at worst, to first hand exposure to the sex/stripping industry). That the university has not detected these oversights furthermore, I find appalling.

The following industry link discusses Kelly's article and provides a much wider research pool than Ms Holsopple bothers to investigate. This may be of some interest to you:

Please feel free to pass on this correspondence to Ms Holsopple at your convenience.

Regards,

hey girls!

so as i was waiting for the cab to go to work i decided to check my mail box. and what do i find? but this article printed and sent to me... i don't know who sent it to me but the note said "thought this was intresting" then an email address... i'm not sure who sent it.. might have been a neighbor might have been my foster mom? so i had an idea to send her various "responses" from the dancer world! any new thoughts?

thanks in advance!

I would die laughing if someone ever tried to chuck a live animal at me, and they would die of my stiletto heel going through their throat.....

Where is this? Don't you think that if these things were actually happening everyone would know. It would be on the ten o'clock news! Crazy.

And 100% stats, I don't care if she only got 18 interviews or w/e, nothings 100%. Think about it, not even close to 100% of strippers actually get completely naked, or even topless. I sure don't feel exloited. Stripping is the best job I could have.
