Subject: Another Outrage -- (vote early and often)

On February 20, 1996, the Salt Lake City School Board voted to ban all clubs
in order to keep a Gay/Lesbian/Straight Alliance from forming at East High
School.  Despite numerous phone calls and countless letters,the board seems
to remain recalcitrant.  Salt Lake City will host the 2002 Winter Olympics
with the slogan "The World is Welcome Here." The Salt Lake City School
Board's decision calls into question how much of the "World" is truly
"Welcome" here. The Citizens' Alliance for Hate Free Schools, a project of
the Utah Human Rights Coalition, calls on all supporters of the rights of
young people to have equal access to educational opportunities and safe
schools to sign the following petition.

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION AND THEN FORWARD TO SOMEONE ELSE. IF YOU ARE A
TENTH PERSON TO SIGN YOUR NAME, FORWARD THE LIST BACK TO ME:
	cdorchard@earthlink.net
(i.e. the 10th, 20th, 30th person will forward this message to me in
progress)  I will compile the petition and send it to the board members.

PETITION TO THE SALT LAKE CITY SCHOOL BOARD
"We, the undersigned, support the efforts by area high school students to
organize non-curricular clubs and alliances designed to increase
understanding and good will among the high school population and the general
public as well. We call on the Salt Lake City School Board to resist all
illegal attempts at intimidation and coercion to deprive students of their
legally guaranteed rights. We request that they take immediate action to
reverse their decision of February 20, 1996, to ban all clubs."
