ACLU-Nebraska: Because Freedom Can't Protect Itself

One school official told the founders of the club "We can't allow that, it would spread gayism" and "What's next? Orgies in the hallways?"  It took almost two years, but the students persevered and with ACLU's help finally won full recognition.  The GSA now holds meetings regularly, has announcements read with other school clubs, had a yearbook picture featuring the club and even held a rock concert at school as a fundraiser.  Plus, in 2009, GSA founding member Ashley Moffat received a $12,500 college scholarship from the national ACLU as a youth activist scholar!
