If the Uni Student Council thought for a second that "Drag Day" would be a appropriate form of entertainment then it seems clear to this reader that there is a definite need for an advocacy program that counters whatever seems to be the majority point of view. If minority advocacy programs are needed at the college level, and almost every major university had several, then its also a safe bet that it is needed at the high school level as well. "Whatever problems we have, we should continue to approach them in the same thoughtful, calm manner that we traditionally have." I would beg the author to reconsider what tradition means at Uni and evaluate, who created this tradition? To use "thoughtful and calm" is the same sentence feels like you're trying to silence voice(s) that are different from what is a majority normative there at Uni. Traditions should and will change based to the people whom they effect. " Tradition is a guide and not a jailer"- William Somerset Maugham
