Upcoming Event

On Wednesday, October 20th at 6:00 p.m. in the Granite State Room there will be a talk on how to handle yourself if you are stopped by the police. The event is being presented by the UNH Peace and Justice League, UNH NORML, and the Young Americans for Liberty. The event will provide tips for interacting with the police and understanding your rights. Barbara Keshen, Staff Attorney for New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union, and Joanne M. Stella, Esq. Attorney at Law from Student Senate Legal Services, will be given talks during the event. These organizations have all put on very successful events in the past so I am sure that this one will be one you do not want to miss. Last year UNH NORML was awarded "Best New Organization" and the Peace and Justice League put on my personal favorite event of the year with their 40th anniversary of the UNH strike and showing of the documentary "Mayflowers." Any student who has been arrested on campus has probably met with Joanne Stella and would know she has helped out many students in the past.

I will definitely be in attendance that evening and I hope you all will be there to. This should be a great, and obviously very relevant, event for the students of UNH. It is free and open to the public. Seeing as I have two papers to finish that is all I am going to say.

Stay classy, not UMassy.
