Forum postponed -- blame the Nazis

The March 8 forum has been postponed a week, until March 15. (Partly this has happened because of the difficulty of getting anyone to focus politically on anything here in Columbia this week but the visit our city and campus are receiving from the National Socialist Movement.) Here is a message from our local MNEA Organizing Director, Steve McLuckie, who is setting up the forum:

We are setting up a meeting with our lobbyist and Missouri legislators on legislation being debated in Jefferson City, including the attack on tenure and the so-called “Intellectual Diversity Act.” We plan to decide on a strategy for action concerning these bills. We are hoping to schedule it for Thursday, March 15, which is right before the legislators go on their spring break. Once we can confirm speakers and reserve a room, we will share the details with you.
