Dear 40 year Old Me

This is a new campaign, different than the It Gets Better where students jump 40 years ahead and look back on their struggles in the present. It is coming out of the Illinois Safe Schools Alliance and is pretty cool. It would be nice to have something like this on our homefront which mixes politics, education and human worth.

It Gets Better & Brigham Young

Yet another addition to the campaign - this one from a very conservative Mormon college. It seemed a bit more special than the average.

Students Speak Out

Now is your chance to actually have a voice in the Bullying cause. This is a link to a survey called Matthew's Place - in homage to Matthew Shepard. They are asking for feedback from teens about what a "real" bullying program needs to include. Be a part of the larger movement.

Matthew's Place Survey

When it is done, I will also include the link which could be a great resource for us in talk backs when the Bully issue rears its head.
