From the Marine Corps Times:
High schoolers suspended after protesting recruiters Marine Corps recruiters in Frederick, Md., are worried that anti-military sentiment may be growing at a local high school following an on-campus protest of Marine recruiters that ended with five students suspended, a Corps spokeswoman said May 1. The April 27 protest at Fredrick's Gov. Thomas Johnson High School, included the leader of school's Young Socialist Club. According to Sgt. Tiffany Carter, the students passed out leaflets during a "die-in," and lay on the ground in front of a recruiting booth Marines had set up on campus. A sheriff's deputy led two students away after they refused to move. Three others went willingly to the principal's office. Carter said Marine recruiters have visited the school ten times during the school year without incident, but that several students began efforts early in the school year to persuade members on the Frederick County Board of Education to ban military recruiters from school property....
Other Maryland public schools have been under pressure to restrict military recruiting. Must be something in the water.
