Chandra Observations of Red Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasars

We present short \chandra observations of twelve bright (i<18) z_em~1.5 quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey chosen to have significantly redder optical colors than most quasars at the same redshift. Of the five quasars with optical properties most consistent with dust reddening at the quasar redshift, four show indirect evidence of moderate X-ray absorption (inferred N_H~10^22 cm^-2) with a dust-to-gas ratio
