CIA OFF AUSTIN PEAY'S CAMPUS!
We want Austin Peay State University to agree to refuse to allow any organization to organize or recruit on our campus if that organization routinely violates human rights and international law and/or operates in violation of the student code of conduct. The CIA is one such organization and it has a long and sordid history that includes assassinations, kidnappings, torture, drug trafficking, performing unethical experiments on college students, overthrowing democratically elected leaders of sovereign nations, propping up military dictatorships and puppet governments in these nations etc etc. We simply ask that APSU hold the organizations it allows on its campus to the same high standards it holds students to.
Why is this important?
On wednesday 26 September 2012 the Austin Peay State University (APSU) Office of Career Services will be hosting a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) recruitment event on campus. The CIA has a history of recruiting students and professors to spy on other students and faculty, performing unethical mind control experiments on students (Project MKUltra), as well as a long list of repeated violations of human rights and international law. Activities such as these are unacceptable and will not be tolerated at APSU. We are calling on the campus administration to uphold the student code of conduct and not allow the CIA on our campus.
