I had to pass-on this hilarious email from the CLS OutLaws group in response to military recruitment this week at the law school,l in violation of Columbia's antidiscrimination policy (the law schools said "don't ask, don't tell" is discriminatory and refused to let the military recruit, the military got the Supreme Court to uphold its interpretation of the Solomon Amendment to say that not allowing the military on campus could lead to a cutting of federal funds to the university, which at Columbia is worth hundreds of millions and sustains the med school...now Yale is bringing a suit, since its the only ivy law school with a spine, and in the meantime the military is back on campus): This week we have decided to use GAY SLANG… so if you see an underlined word then look it up at the end of the email (there is an index of terms) but don’t turn me into Mama Bear if you get offended… I’m just trying to Butter, Bake and Baste ya’ll… and avoid being retail... SNAP. Hey Hey – Let’s Get Gaysted!!! Wednesday February 28 at 12:20 pm in JG 104. Panel “Do Tell, Due Change, Due Justice: Former Service Members' Perspectives on 'Don't Ask Don't Tell.'" Harvard Don’t Ask Don’t Tell Conference – March 2nd to March 3rd. Misc. Announcements/ Jobs/ Scholarships This Week In OutLaws is sent out once a week. If you want to have something included in the email send it to Dorianberger@gmail.com by 5pm on Saturday for the following week. Glossary: Cafeteria – a bar filled with many prospective mates. Sidwalk Sale – A group of gays on the sidewalk after a gay bar closes “Suite at 4am has a crappy sidewalk sale.
