Title

ACLU Letter about recruitment protests

Description

In this document, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) voices its opinion on the protesting taking place on college campuses against recruiters. It states that it will support the protestors' freedom of speech to protest the recruiters as well as the recruiters' right to be on campus to recruit. The organization, however, will not at all support protesters who use the means of violence to try to achieve their goals of getting recruiters off of campus.
