Attention activists, students, and people of Boston,
At Tufts University a bisexual female was discriminated against by a
Christian organization. The group denied her a leadership position because
she was a self-accepting bisexual and she believed that homosexuality was OK
and not inferior to heterosexuality. This organization recieves Tufts
funding and allowed to carry the Tufts name.
She brought this case before our student Judiciary and she lost. The
rationale was that our non-discrimination policy protects your identity, not
the belief that your identity is OK.
********THIS IS AN OUTRAGE********
Tufts students have taken the initiative to demand justice. Join us...
Tufts is NOT SAFE March
Monday, Oct. 23rd @ 2:45pm

We'll be gathering Boston community activists, students, groups, and
people in Davis Square to march to Tufts University. We will meet Tufts
students who will have walked out of classes and we will rally together.
Please support us and demand that Tufts University be a safe space for ALL
people. For more information on this issue or how you can help, please
contact lou at lespar01@tufts.edu or (617) 627-1970.
