a call to service... Let's Make NY an ant-Hazelwood state

I'd like to put together a team of students dedicated to this cause for the next few months -

You will need to research -
Local high schools and colleges, get on the phones and survey these schools, (not just in the city, but Long Island and rural areas as well)
  • what are their rules about censorship and prior review?
  • can they write about whatever they want?
You will also have to talk to Marjorie Fineberg in Tweed at the DOE about policy
You will talk to people in Albany

After we have done the research, we will start a letter writing campaign to the local politicians to try and make NY an anti-Hazelwood state.

Who is up for the challenge?
