From paa at crosierbiomed.com Fri Mar 23 17:55:34 2007 From: paa at crosierbiomed.com (Bill Crosier) Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2007 16:55:34 -0500 Subject: [PAA-MilRecruit] Truth in Recruiting meeting Monday, March 26, 7 pm Message-ID: See meeting notice below. Forwarded with permission -- all are invited to participate. I also have some materials related to this that I'll upload to our web site when I get a chance - they relate to Opting out (of automatically providing student contact info to military recruiters/stalkers-- two versions of the opt out form, a sample letter to principals, and an excerpt from the No Child Left Behind Act. Thanks to HPJC's Truth in Recruiting committee for help with this. Can someone please post this on the PAA online calendar? thanks. For more information, contact Bob Henschen (e-mail address below). If you are interested in counter-recruiting/truth in recruiting, and if you are not already on PAA's e-mail list for this, please sign up at http://paa-tx.org/mailman/listinfo/mil_recruiting_paa-tx.org It's a low-volume list and I won't send these notices to the general PAA discussion list regularly, but I'll try to send them to the mil-recruiting list.
