LOUNGE DEDICATION
Qucering the Census
The Columbia Queer Alliance at
Columbia University teamed up with
LGBT groupa at other Ivy League
schools to launch a campaign called
Queer the Census, according to an April
9 article in the Columbia Spectator.
Census forms contain questiona
about gender and nationality but not
sexual orientation.
As part of their campaign, members
of the Columbia Queer Alliance passed
out pink stickers to students to stick on
their census forms and asked them to
indicate their sexual orientations.
Raul Vicente, senior media special-
ist for the Census Bureau in the New
York region, said in the article that the
information students send in will not
be factored into official census data,
but he supported the movement if it
encouraged students to submit forms.
"oif that pink sticker will motivate
them to send their forms in, then so be
it, that's a good thing," he said in the
article.
GORE TALKS MORALS OF
CLIMATE CHANGE
Former Vice President Al Gore spoke
about the morals of climate change in a
speech given to hundreds of students at
Duke University on April 8, according
to an April 9 article in The Chronicle of
Migher Education.
During the lecture, Gore briefly talk-
ed about his political career, but focused
on the acceleration of global warming
over the past 150 years and the human
contribution to finding asolution.
"Make no mistake, this is not just a
political issue, not just a market issue,
not just a national security issue, not
just a jobs issue," Gore said in the arti-
tie. "It is a moral issue."
ASSAULT DOCUMENTATION
LACES NUMBERS
A recent report has found that the
number of sexual assaults that occur on
college campuses is under-documented
each year, accordingto an April 9 article
in The Daily Collegian, Pennsylvania
State University's student newspaper.
Law enforcement agencies and col-
leges collaborate each year to publish
the Clery Act report - a documenta-
tion of crimes committed throughout
the year, according to the article. But
many records of assault aren't included
in this report, as universities use police
records that oftentimes lack data that
should be included, the article states.
The number of reported assaults
has increased at Penn State during the
last three years, but even this increase
doesn't reflect the actual number of
assaults that occurs. According to the
article, because assaults reported to
the Center for Women Students or the
Center for Counseling and Psycho-
logical Services are often confidential,
there is an under representation of sex-
ual assaults reported at colleges.
