True, but it was a (conservative) Lowell student who first brought this to local attention. And it's their education that's at risk of being subsumed by political indoctrination. So I would think that this is a pretty important issue for students.
Not that we're suggesting walk-outs or anything ;-)
LOL!

Good point, it's definitely important to take a stand, and I'm sure that everyone else will pull it off in a much more thoughtful and dignified manner than is often displayed by Cindy Sheehan. So, in that sense, the rally will be more legitimately educational than the Cindy Sheehan event.
You'd think that someone as hysterical, reactionary, and unbalanced as Cindy Sheehan would obviously be a poor choice if the school were trying to instill a thoughtful and balanced interest in national and world events.
BTW, on the lighter side, I'm a graduate of Lowell, and when I was there, students used to use funnels and surgical tubing to fire fruit and other items from the middle courtyard, over the building, to the outer courtyard near Eucalyptus (and vice versa). So, everyone keep one eye on the sky and watch out ;-)
