...Many proponents of abstinence-only curricula wrote in to express their disappointment over what they saw as a misrepresentation of their position. Most abstinence classes, they told us, don't deny human sexuality.

...need to respond to the offer until May 1, allowing them the chance to apply elsewhere and possibly weigh the pros and cons of several schools before deciding which will be best for them. Some eager beavers may send the admission card back to Byerly Hall by express mail this week; other more contemplative thinkers might wait until midnight on April 30.
