Protest meeting to support setting up of pro-choice group at UCC

category cork | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Wednesday January 28, 2009 22:14author by Alan Davis - Cork Women's Right to Choose Groupauthor email cork.womens.right.to.choose at gmail dot com Report this post to the editors

On Monday evening this week the Societies Guild at UCC rejected an application, backed by over 100 student signatures, to set up a pro-choice student society.

The “reason” the Societies Guild gave for their disgraceful decision was:

"Your society application was brought before the Guild last evening. Unfortunately status was not approved. It is a decision that was ultimately made by a previous Guild and is being upheld. 'A society already exists which caters for debate in the area of abortion and choice'. Membership to this and all societies is open to all students in UCC. Thank you for your interest and I hope you join one of the many societies in UCC."

This is clearly absurd as the society that already exists is the anti-choice "Students for life" - this decision amounts to political censorship of the pro-choice message and must be overturned.

Attached is the poster/leaflet we will be distributing on UCC campus tomorrow (Thursday) 11am – 3pm advertising a meeting on campus next Monday (2 Feb) of all those opposed to this decision and who want to help get it overturned.

Please pass on the news and help build the meeting next Monday, 7pm, Room 8, West Wing, UCC.
