Graphic image display on Students' Union patio

This notice is from the archives of The Notice Board. Information contained in this notice was accurate at the time of publication but may no longer be so.

The Abortion Awareness Project advised Security Services at approximately 1:15 p.m. today that they will be setting up a Choice Chain on the University of Lethbridge campus. We expect this demonstration to commence immediately.

The group will be displaying material in the area of the Students’ Union patio and bus loop. In past instances, the materials displayed and the ensuing debate on campus have been emotional for those not wishing to view the materials or participate in the discussion.

Individuals will be able to choose to walk by the display or not. Signage at either end of the display area will be erected to inform students, faculty, staff and community members of the display’s location and the nature of its contents. U of L Security Officers will also be present to advise of alternate routes if individuals want to avoid the area.

If there are members of our community that are feeling distress over this situation, please seek assistance through Counselling Services (http://www.uleth.ca/counselling/) at 403-317-2845 or through the University of Lethbridge Employee and Family Assistance Program at 1-800-663-1142.
