Have you or someone you know or know of
lost financial aid for college because of a drug conviction? The
Higher Education Act Reform Campaign urgently needs to find more such students
or would-be students who are willing to go public and talk to the media.
The need is urgent because some of the most major media outlets in the
country are asking for them, and they want to do the stories now!
Our call last week found several new candidates
who have stepped up to the plate and deserve all our thanks. Our
most urgent need now, however, is in the greater New York City area.
Please contact DRCNet at (202) 293-8340
or Students for Sensible Drug Policy at (202) 293-4414 if you can help,
or e-mail [email protected].
