More Education, Awareness Needed About Lesbian/Bisexual/Gay Concerns, Maine Perspective
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
Graffiti is scrawled on a sidewalk. A door of a student's dorm room is splattered in red with a defamatory message. Publicity flyers are ripped from walls. There are derogatory jokes and name-calling. Threats and realities of physical violence. Harassment. All are prejudicial actions against a minority of the population. At issue is not race, color, religion, gender, age or nationality. At issue is sexual orientation. And because college campuses are microcosms of society, the actions occur at the University of Maine and at universities throughout the country that, by their very nature, are supposedly bastions of free expression and …

If ignoring was bliss there would be many happy people at UMO. The reaction by many students to the upcoming Jeans Day shows the ignorance on the subject. People are complaining that the day will infringe on their rights and how it will cause them distress should they wear jeans and be mistaken for a homosexual.

The Student Association of Maine has embraced an ominous task. In its effort to represent 32,000 post-secondary students throughout the state, conflicts are bound to surface. But if SAM can unify its student membership, the prospects for developing a powerful voice in Augusta, a voice that would be heard in the halls of the State House and reverberate back to individual campuses are bright.

"SAM" --the word has a familiar ring to it, from the sixties, when the evening news opened with the day's body counts in South Vietnam and conflicting reports of fighter-jet losses in the skies over North Vietnam--'Surface-to-Air-Missile.' Another, but altogether different, "SAM" was launched in Bangor Saturday--the Student Association of Maine. Its propellant is in the person of UMO's Peter Simin, and its payload is the interests of 32,000 post-secondary students in Maine.

It may interest your readers to know that the Federal Courts have already decided that campus gay organizations have the right to exist and to use the university facilities made available to any other group on campus. The relevant decisions involved the University of New Hampshire, University of Georgia and Oklahoma University. This is not the first time that the Courts in interpreting and enforcing the Bill of Rights have blazed a trail for those not so well-versed in Constitutional law nor well-traveled in the realm of liberty.

"Are you opposed to homosexual relations between consenting adults?" "Do you drink alcoholic beverages?" "Are you opposed to the dissemination of birth control devices to college students by the infirmary? "Would you favor the elimination of legal sanctions prohibiting the use of marijuana?" The answers these questions have elicited over the past seven years convince Dr. Kenneth Hayes that a social revolution has slowly and quietly changed the attitudes of students attending UMO.

Editorial reaction to language included in the feature story, "Gay Lib. Spokeswoman" which appears in the 1973-04-12 issue of The Maine Campus. There are over 400,000 words in the English language. It is ridiculous to segregate seven, eight, or nine—or even one—of them as totally unsuitable for use in a newspaper. Acting as if certain four-letter words do not exist only adds to the titillating air that surrounds them when they do appear—as they will.

Gay liberation has finally come out of the closet in Maine, and it looks like it is out and open to stay. A gay group began last semester at UMO as part of the Abenaki curriculum. Intended as an academic discussion of the social and psychological aspects of homosexuality, the small grou expanded and turned from a discussion to become an active gay social-support group.
