LGBT

Hey All.

So, some of you might be curious as to where I have been for the last week or so. I’ve been unusually absent from the usual day-to-day on Ubuntu work, so I figure that I’d put a post up to explain this a bit.

I am, as most of you know, a student at a Jesuit university in Ohio, John Carroll ( JCU ). There is currently a bit of noise about the LGBTQ ( Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transsexual, Questioning ) community, and their rights.

The long and short of it is that the Administration of John Carroll decided on creating an “agreement” to dictate conduct, rather then a legally binding statement to protect the LGBTQ community. I have been involved with this a good deal, and it would mean a lot if you were to post your opinions here, or send an email to my University in support of creating a legally binding clause protecting LGBTQ members of the University. Any opinions you would like to share can be directed to the President of JCU, Father Niehoff, S.J.. Father Niehoff is supportive of this change, so if you are to send an email, please be respectful.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please consider helping us bring equity to Ohio, and John Carroll University.

Rbt Y-Lee was nice enough to share this link here. I figured someone else might find this as interesting as I did. Thanks Rbt!!
