Obama Seeks to Give Special Protections to Students Who Identify as Homosexual

(Harrisburg) — Today President Obama took another step down the path of pushing the normalization of homosexuality on our nation’s school children — endorsement of the homosexual-affirming bills Student Non-Discrimination Act (SNDA) — S 555   and the Safe Schools Improvement Act (SSIA) — S 506.      The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA), a child advocacy and traditional values group, recognizes the danger these endorsements pose to students.  The AFA of PA believes all students should be provided a safe learning environment.  That includes not encouraging them to engage in homosexual activity and telling students about the dangers inherent in that lifestyle choice.

“The timing of these endorsements are not coincidental.  Today is the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network’s  Day of Action the “Day of Silence.”  Obama’s endorsements of the Student Non-Discrimination Act  and the Safe Schools Improvement Act are yet more efforts to give a green light in allowing our school children to be guinea pigs in this social experiment homosexualizing our nation’s school.  The White House is more concerned about what the kids are eating at lunch, warning about the dangers of obesity, than it is about the real dangers of engaging in homosexual sex.  This is an election year ploy to garner the homosexual vote,” commented Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA.

Pennsylvania Senator Robert Casey’s introduction of S 506 is additional proof that he is not his father.  Robert Casey, Sr. would have worked to protect children from malicious indoctrination that will take place in schools if this bill is passed.  It’s main purpose is not safety, but advancing the idea that ‘gay is okay’ and to silence students with deeply held religious beliefs that engaging in homosexual acts is sinful.  It will amend the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 and load already overburdened schools with additional reporting and policy changes.

Senator Casey also is a co-sponsor of S 555 whose stated purpose is “To end discrimination based on actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity in public schools . . . “  This bill will specifically target those who oppose the portrayal that homosexuality as a ‘safe, alternative lifestyle.’

“Christian students and all public schools will be on the losing end if these bills are passed.  Christian students will be silenced.  Schools will be forced to permit male students who believe they are female to use the girl’s restroom and gym locker rooms and shower facilities.  Schools will also be forced to allow boys to come to school in makeup, high heels and a dress.  They will be forced to allow ‘gay’ proms and ‘gay’ speakers to address students.  These are not about safety, but are an effort to push the envelope further and will demonize anyone who objects.  These endorsements are further evidence of Obama’s radical agenda,” Gramley concluded.

“Gay” Day of Silence is This Friday!  Is Your Child’s School Participating?

Details

This Friday, April 20th, is the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN) Day of Silence in schools across  the nation and many in Pennsylvania will participate also.  This is a day when students and, in some cases, teachers remain silent throughout the day to show support for ‘homosexual rights’ claiming that those who identify as ‘gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender’ have been silenced.   However, the ACLU even recognizes that the silence cannot be legally maintained during instructional time.

This mostly takes place in high schools, but some middle schools now participate.  Is you child’s school going to observe this day?  GLSEN used to proudly list all the participating schools, but since the AFA of PA and others have worked to expose the dangers of promoting homosexuality in schools, the list is now top secret information!  They don’t want parents and taxpayers to find out how a taxpayer funded school day is being used to normalize the homosexual lifestyle.

Click here for a great article by Laurie Higgins with the Illinois Family Institute. This gives more details and reasons why this is so dangerous and actions you can take.

ACTION STEPS:

1.)  Contact your child’s high or middle school and ask if they will permit students and/or teachers to remain silent during instructional time during the Day of Silence – April 20th.

2.)  If your school acknowledges that they will permit this silence during instructional time, please take part in the Day of Silence Walkout and  keep your child home on Friday!  Click here for more information and a sample letter to give to the school.

3.)  This year we want to do follow-up and would like YOUR story if you keep your child home on the “Gay Day of Silence.”  Here’s what we are asking for:

If you are keeping your child home from school on the Day of Silence, could you drop us a short note about your situation? Here are some of the kinds of things we’re interesting in hearing:

1. Whom did you contact at your school prior to the Day of Silence?

2. What did this person or persons tell you about how the administration’s expectations for teachers and students?

3. Did the administration contact parents prior to the Day of Silence to tell them that it was taking place, what it was, what organization promotes it, and about the administration’s expectations for student behavior?

If you would like to share your story please email us at info@afaofpa.org and we will forward your story to Linda Harvey at Mission America.  With your permission, we will include it in our follow up report.

East Pennsboro School Board Decision Tonight Will Be a Vote for or Against Students’ Well-being

(Harrisburg) –  Tonight’s vote at the East Pennsboro school board meeting will determine whether students will face indoctrination that endangers their well-being or they will remain safe from the social engineering that goes hand in hand with so-called Gay Straight Alliance Clubs or GSAs.  The tie vote of the board on April 2nd showed that at least half the board understands the legal liability the school may face by allowing homosexuality education into the schools.  The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) has contacted the school board members with the exact language of the Equal Access Act and a list of disruptive activities GSAs promote in their respective schools.

“GSAs are the brain child of Kevin Jennings, former Safe Schools Czar of President Obama, who has promoted homosexuality in schools since he was a Massachusetts teacher.  He formed the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN) to fulfill his dream of nationwide student indoctrination that ‘gay is okay.’  GLSEN has several days of action with their biggest disruptive day coming this Friday with the Day of Silence where students and teachers remain silent — in some cases even during instructional time.  The clear message with GSAs, GLSEN and their days of actions is that engaging in homosexual acts is safe and normal and anyone who opposes them is a homophobic bully — that’s their message.  It’s one that threatens the free speech rights of students with deeply held religious believes,” noted Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA.

The last section (Section f) of the Equal Access Act says:   Authority of schools with respect to order, discipline,  well-being, and attendance concerns

Nothing in this subchapter shall be construed to limit the authority of the
school, its agents or employees, to maintain order and discipline on school
premises, to protect the well-being of students and faculty, and to assure that
attendance of students at meetings is voluntary.

“GLSEN’s agenda through their GSAs and their Days of Action are designed to be an attack on order and discipline within the school and the life of the student body.  To give a green light to this club would be giving a green light to indoctrination which would disrupt the academic process and would send the wrong message to students,” further stated Gramley

A coalition of pro-family groups is urging parents to keep their children home from school on the “Day of Silence,” if your school is allowing students to refuse to speak in class.

GLSEN’s Day of Silence, which began on college campuses and has now infiltrated even middle schools, exploits anti-bullying sentiment to undermine the belief that homosexual acts are immoral.

GLSEN shamelessly exploits teen suicide in order to create a climate of hysteria which they then use to falsely impute culpability for teen suicide to conservative moral beliefs.

GLSEN’s end game is the eradication of conservative moral beliefs and the creation of a social and political climate in which it is impossible to express them. Their cultural vehicle of choice for this radical social experiment is public education. What a strategic coup for homosexualists: use our money to capture the hearts and minds of our children.

Efforts to exploit public education for the purpose of eradicating conservative moral beliefs are dramatically increasing every year. Homosexual activists and their allies are aggressively targeting younger and younger children through “anti-bullying” laws, policies, and curricula; through the effort to nationalize “comprehensive sex ed”; through laws mandating positive portrayals of homosexuality and gender deviance in curricula; and through events like the Day of Silence, National Coming Out Day, Ally Week, Transgender Day of Remembrance; and Spirit Week.

And conservatives do virtually nothing. Our complacence makes us complicit in the damage done to our children and our culture.

Moreover, we teach our children by example to be cowardly conformists. It’s time to resist and there’s no easier way to resist than to call your children out of school on the Day of Silence.

Parents and Guardians: Call your children’s middle and high schools and ask if students and/or teachers will be permitted to refuse to speak during class on Friday, April 20, 2012. If your administration allows students and/or teachers to refuse to speak during class, call your child out of school. Every student absence costs school districts money.

When administrators refuse to listen to reason and when they allow the classroom to be exploited for political purposes, parents must take action. If they don’t, the politicization of the classroom and curricula will increase.

If your administrator tells you that they do not permit students or teachers to refuse to speak in class, ask him or her how that is communicated to faculty and students and how it is enforced.

The ACLU has issued this statement to students regarding silence in class:

“You DO have a right to participate in Day of Silence and other expressions of your opinion at a public school during non-instructional time: the breaks between classes, before and after the school day, lunchtime, and any other free times during your day. You do NOT have a right to remain silent during class time if a teacher asks you to speak.”

The idea that homosexual acts are moral, good, or normative is not a fact. It is an unproven, non-factual, controversial moral belief. As such, no government employee or publicly subsidized institution has the ethical right to teach it to children implicitly or explicitly. It is entirely possible for schools to work toward the important goal of eradicating bullying without affirming homosexuality or gender confusion.

It is unconscionable that conservative parents remain silent, acquiescent, fearful non-participants in our public schools while homosexuals and their ideological allies engage continuously in vociferous, vigorous, and bold action.

Conservatives need to start acting and speaking as if we think our moral beliefs are objectively true. Conservative teachers need to create activities that require students to speak on the Day of Silence, and conservative parents need to teach their children by example to take a stand for truth.

Please call your children out of school if your administration permits students to refuse to speak on the Day of Silence.

Will Only One Side of the Story Be Told?

(Harrisburg) — Tomorrow night the Dallastown High School Gay Straight Alliance Club will be showing the “documentary” Out in the Silence.  The target of that documentary is the American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA).

“Homosexual activists Dean Hamer and Joe Wilson targeted the AFA of PA accusing us of encouraging the bullying of students who identify as homosexual  and calling for the boycott of a lesbian-owned theatre.  All of which are false, yet they chose to distort and twist the facts as well as deliberately edit out any conversations that took place between Dean, Joe or CJ and me to fit their own agenda,” commented Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA.

For those who want to know the truth about what happened during the filming of this ‘documentary’  and read the letters that are referenced during the film, they can go to the AFA of PA website.    Interested parties can also go to the AFA of PA YouTube channel and watch excerpts of the AFA of PA response to Out in the Silence held in Coudersport in August 2010.

The AFA of PA has made it very clear that ALL students should be provided a safe learning environment.  Our letters and other communications have never indicated otherwise.  We fully support anti-bullying programs which address ALL bullying and do not single out certain groups for special attention.  The AFA of PA has also taken a strong stand in educating on the dangers of the homosexual lifestyle and not simply telling students that engaging in homosexual acts is simply a ‘safe alternative lifestyle.’  Additionally, the AFA of PA does not believe anyone is ‘born gay.’

Medical problems students should be warned of include:

– 57% of all new HIV cases in 2009 were men who have sex with men  (MSM)

– Young MSM, especially those of minority races and ethnicities, are at increased risk for HIV infection. In 2009, young MSM accounted for 27% of new HIV infections in the US and 69% of new HIV infections among persons aged 13–29. Among young black MSM, new HIV infections increased 48% from 2006 through 2009.

– increased cases of syphilis among men who have sex with men

– men who have sex with men can shorten their lives by up to 20 years 

– bisexuals are a bridge for HIV/AIDS into the heterosexual community

“Hamer and Wilson have used their false claims in the documentary to further their agenda and proclaim that all those who oppose their tactics and lies are haters and encourage the bullying of homosexuals.  I made it very clear to CJ Bills, in the conversation that was conveniently cut from the film, that what happened to him was wrong and the school should have investigated his accusations more thoroughly,” Gramley further stated.

Issues

1.) Is Your Child’s School Participating In This?

2.)  President Obama’s Statement on the Anniversary of Roe v. Wade -Click here.

Details

1.)  This is “No Name Calling Week” (NNCW)   in our nation’s schools!  Sounds good until you realize it is the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN) who is behind it.  GLSEN’s ultimate goal is to normalize the homosexual lifestyle – telling kids that ‘It’s okay to be gay.’  Last week they released a 68-page elementary toolkit called “Ready, Set, Respect

Here are some statements from that publication’s introduction:

[E]lementary school children are bombarded every day with messages about different groups of people in our society, many of which portray these groups in a negative, socially undesirable way. Those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) are often among these groups. In addition to influencing attitudes, the messages children receive about these people also influences (sic) how they will make sense of gender and inform how they think about their own identity… without intentional guidance, the messages children receive about groups of people, as well as various identities and gender roles can complicate this process and contribute to bullying, prejudice and bias.

While most elementary educators have embraced this work and construct and conduct lessons focused on diversity, recent research suggests that intentional efforts to include explicit lessons that foster respect for differences in gender identity or gender expression or that include families with LGBT parents/caregiver, siblings, or other individuals significant in our student’s lives, are less frequent. As a result, many students go through their elementary school years without positive mentions of families that include LGBT persons or friends or people who may be gender non-conforming.

The elementary school years offer a wonderful and important opportunity to instill and/or nurture positive attitudes and respect for individual, family and cultural differences, including diversity related to sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression.

More specific instructions include the following:

• Make sure the analogies you use when teaching don’t rely on hetero-normative or gender-normative images or viewpoints. A hetero-normative viewpoint is one that expresses heterosexuality as a given instead of being one of many possibilities. Such a viewpoint can translate into the development of all kinds of images that reinforce the view. The assumption (reinforced by imagery and practice) that a boy will grow up and marry a woman is based on such a viewpoint. A gender-normative image, on the other hand is one that delimits the possibilities for children of either gender by reinforcing stereotyped expectations.
• Find ways of grouping and lining up students other than “boys here, girls there” or “boys do this, girls do that.” While some students may enjoy these ways of separating the class, they can isolate other students who may feel uncomfortable conforming to gender-based stereotypes.
• Monitor choice activity time to ensure that students are not segregating themselves by gender.
• Become more aware of the ways that you support gender stereotypes in your expectations of students and their work and intervene when you hear students making genderbased assumptions.
• Write math problems with contexts that include a variety of family structures and gender-expressions. For example, “Rosa and her dads were at the store and wanted to buy three boxes of pasta. If each costs $.75, how much will all three boxes cost?”(emphasis added)

Now you see where GLSEN is coming from and such thinking will be reflected in this week’s NNCW lessons.

Action Steps

1.)  Call your child’s school and see if they are participating in ‘No Name Calling Week.”

2.)  Share this information with others who are concerned with what is going on in our schools.

Traditional Values Group Listed in PA Inter-Agency Task Force on Civil Tension ‘Bias Incidents’ Report – Why?

(Harrisburg)  In November the American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA), a statewide traditional values group which advocates for natural marriage, family and children, criticized the US Department of Education for its criticism of the Penn State/Sandusky homosexual predator scandal.     Today the criticism by the AFA of PA will be discussed at the PA Inter-Agency Task Force on Civil Tension meeting as our criticism made page 3 of the recently released report of ‘bias incidents.’

“This is yet another example of political correctness gone amuck.  Our attempt in November was to expose the efforts of Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to encourage schools across the country to establish gay straight alliance clubs which many times places impressionable students in harm’s way by validating the dangerous homosexual lifestyle and puts them in contact with outside homosexual groups and individuals.  Then he turns around and criticizes Penn State for not being more careful in monitoring Sandusky.  It really seems that Secretary Duncan does not fully understand what he is advocating,” remarked Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA.

On June 14 Secretary Duncan sent a “Dear Colleague” letter  to federally funded schools across the country advising them to allow the establishment school clubs, especially gay straight alliance clubs in order to ” help ensure that all students, including LGBT and gender nonconforming students, have a safe place to learn, meet, share experiences, and discuss matters that are important to them.”

“Perhaps Pennsylvania’s tax dollars could be better used than listing efforts by a child advocacy group to protect school students from US DOE attempts to  get kids into gay straight alliance clubs.  Any “interagency tension” created by our November 17th news release was created by the PA Inter-Agency Task Force on Civil Tension itself, not the AFA of PA,” Gramley concluded.

What a Joke!  US Department of Education Wants to Investigate Penn State

(Harrisburg) –  The Monday after former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky was arraigned on 40 criminal counts dealing with his alleged sexual assault of boys and young teens , Secretary of Education Arne Duncan told an AP reporter that the Penn State sexual assault case made him “extraordinarily angry.”    Two days later the US Department of Education announced it will begin an investigation into Penn State to determine whether the school followed the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and the Campus Crime Statistics Act.   However, the American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) notes that this response to the homosexual predator case is extremely hypocritical of Arne Duncan who is pushing school districts to approve gay straight alliance clubs which potentially places students in the path of homosexual predators.

On June 14 Secretary Duncan sent a “Dear Colleague” letter to federally funded schools across the country advising them about establishing school clubs, especially gay straight alliance clubs in order to ” help ensure that all students, including LGBT and gender nonconforming students, have a safe place to learn, meet, share experiences, and discuss matters that are important to them.”   The AFA of PA agrees that all students should be provided a safe learning environment, but to encourage a dangerous lifestyle is irresponsible.    Duncan is laying the groundwork to  create potential Penn State sex scandals in middle and high schools across the country.

“In his letter Duncan quoted extensively from the fraudulent data from the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN) National School Climate Survey which was compiled and interpreted entirely by GLSEN’s own in-house activists, targeted only students who identify as homosexual, bisexual, transgender or a sexual orientation other than heterosexual and organizations promoting homosexuality and was simply posted on their website.  He used bad statistics in his “Dear Colleague” letter,” explained Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA.

There is a growing indication that a link exists between GSAs in schools and community based homosexual groups.  This places adolescent members of GSAs in contact with adult homosexuals in the area, thus placing them in danger of potential assault.

Examples in PA  include the Rainbow Room in Bucks County  which  is also working to create activists through the Abington Township GSA.    A GSA leadership summit held at Dickinson College in 2009  and this year placed students who either self-identify as ‘gay’ or their allies in potentially danger situations.   The homosexual organization Common Roads in Harrisburg works closely with area GSAs.   These are but a few examples of the type relationships between homosexual groups and gay straight alliance clubs with which Arne Duncan is apparently okay.

“The alleged assaults and cover-up at Penn State do need to be investigated, but Arne Duncan needs to rethink his support of gay straight alliance clubs and be truthful with schools about what the Equal Access Act says in its entirety.  Because that law does not “limit the authority of the school, its agents or employees, to maintain order and discipline on school premises.”   Administrators and school boards who question the wisdom of forming a homosexual club have reason to be concerned,” further explained Gramley.

AFA of PA Statement on the Firing of Graham Spanier and Joe Paterno

(Harrisburg) –  Tonight the Penn State Board of Trustees did the right thing in unanimously voting to  fire President Graham Spanier and Coach Joe Paterno.    But at least three  questions remain:  1.) What will the Board do about Athletic Director Tim Curley who is on administrative leave?    2.)  Will the school continue paying the legal fees for Curley and Gary Schultz, whose job description included oversight of the campus police?      3.)  In their search for a new president, will the board heed warnings such as those that were registered with them in 1995 as they were on the verge of hiring Graham Spanier?

American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) President Diane Gramley issued the following statement:  “This week has exposed the atmosphere produced at Penn State under the leadership of Graham Spanier.  On Monday the AFA of PA, among others, called for the  Board of Trustees to fire Graham Spanier.  The chorus of voices calling for that action has only increased since that time.  Tonight Spanier is gone.  As the Pennsylvania Police Commissioner acknowledged Joe Paterno had fulfilled his legal obligation when he reported the incident to Tim Curley, but questioned whether he had fulfilled his moral responsibility to do more.   Joe Paterno is also gone, ending his 46 year head coaching career with a terrible blemish.  The lives of at least eight young boys have been destroyed because of the actions of a homosexual predator and the inaction of those in authority at Penn State.  Spanier has done much damage to the image of Penn State and the board’s responsibility is to find someone who is not just a good fundraiser or lobbyist in Harrisburg, but someone who understands the dangers of permitting such an ‘anything goes’ attitude on campus.  The Board has an opportunity to get Penn State back on track — will they take it?”

American Family Association of Pennsylvania Calls for Removal of Penn State President

(Harrisburg)  — If the accusations of sexual assault against former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky prove true, Penn State faces the largest scandal of its history .   The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) notes that the atmosphere around Penn State has for years laid the groundwork for such accusations and alleged cover-ups.  Penn State president Graham Spanier, who wrote his doctoral dissertation on wife-swapping, led the way.    The AFA of PA calls on the Board of Trustees to do the right thing and dismiss Graham Spanier, which would be a step in the right direction of cleaning up Penn State’s image.

In 1995 the Penn State Board was warned about Spanier by Andrew Loudon, University of Nebraska-Lincoln student body president and student regent, “He very much focuses on affirmative action and a pro-homosexual agenda.  Watch out for his social agenda. . . .”

“Penn State’s reputation has for many years been that of a university gone wild – willing to not only push liberalism, but indecency.  The examples abound yet the legislative body in Harrisburg nor the Board of Trustees of Penn State have been willing to do anything to stop forcing Pennsylvania taxpayers from funding this immorality.  In 2001 State Representative John Lawless tried unsuccessfully to get an amendment passed that would have symbolically reprimanded Penn State by lowering its 2002 appropriations of $340 million by $9,520 – the cost of C-Fest which was held in November 2000.  Legislators did not listen then and have not listened since, but instead have continued funneling money into the cesspool that exists on Penn State’s main campus, ” Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA stated.

The Lawless amendment did pass in the State House in April 2001, but was stripped out in the Senate.  How do those legislators in both the House and Senate who voted against the Lawless amendment and every effort since to rein in Penn State respond to the arrest of Jerry Sandusky and the perjury charges against Penn State Athletic Director Tim Curley and Gary Schultz, senior vice president for finance and business at Penn State and whose job includes oversight of the university police.  Schultz acknowledged during the grand jury hearing that he was aware of a 1998 University Police investigation into allegations of sexually inappropriate behavior involving Sandusky and young boys in the football showers, but did not pursue the matter.    The university never rescinded Sandusky’s privileged access to all  buildings, locker rooms and shower facilities  as part of his 1999 retirement agreement.

” In the fall of 2000 a janitor witnessed Sandusky pin a young boy between 10 and 13 against a locker room wall while Sandusky performed oral sex on him.   A March 2002 eyewitness account places Jerry Sandusky in a locker room shower sexually molesting a boy who appears to be about 10 years old.   The next morning the graduate assistant, who witnessed the alleged assault, called Coach Joe Paterno who contacted his superior the following morning.  Sandusky was banned, with the approval of Graham Spanier from ever bringing boys from his non-profit The Second Mile into the locker rooms in the Lasch Building.   No questions were asked by those in charge at Penn State and the alleged assaults were never reported to law enforcement as is required by law.  The buck stops at the top and that is Graham Spanier’s office,” concluded Gramley.

Examples of activities that have taken place on Penn State’s campus since Spanier became president include:

November 18, 2000 — Womyn’s Concerns and the Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance (FMLA) held C-Fest — “an event featuring performance art, music and a reading  from Inga Muscio, author of the book C_____: A Declaration of Independence.” Jess Dobkin, Lesbian performing artist, in various states of nudity.  One report says it featured nudity, vulgar sexual references, and anti-male rants.

February 2001 — Womyn’s Concerns hosted “Sex Faire” to discuss “issues of Sexual health, consensual activities and liberation.”  Included games such as ‘pin the clitoris on the vulva’ and ‘orgasm bingo.’  A book table featured  ”Smut and Other Great Literature.”

October 2001 — Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine, accepted an invitation to speak

February 2002 –  third annual “Sex Faire” Womyn’s Concerns keynote speakers included  Patrick Califia Rice,  female to male transsexual and author of sadomasochistic  books such as “Macho Sluts” and “Public Sex:  The Culture of Radical Sex” and supporter of NAMBLA ; Sarah Weddington, a lawyer who won Roe v. Wade; Leslie Feinberg speaking on ‘Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered Health Liberation;” and Wendy Sanford presenting “Our Bodies, Ourselves:  Body, Image, Self-Care and Sexual Choices for Women.’  Number of workshops from Homosexuality to safe sex erotic.  Information about Planned Parenthood was Available and free condoms were handed out.’   (a three day event)

October 2002 — announcement made “Process to Create LGBT Minor to Begin”

February 6, 2003 — FMLA brings Vagina Monologues to campus

February 15, 2003 –  Womyn’s Concerns and FMLA bring back “Sex Faire” for five hours only (5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.)  four-one-hour workshops — participants Include Planned Parenthood and Choice USA.  Games include orgasm bingo and body painting  for a lesson on consent.

April 8, 2006 —  Mr. and Ms. Gay Penn State ‘Pageant
