DoS+2006

=CDO GSA and the Day of Silence 2006=

GSA members have been very busy putting the last few touches on the observance of [|Day of Silence] this year, April 26th, 2006. The plan is every student who is taking part in DoS will wear a black t-shirt, a royal blue sash, a little card stock banner around their neck (with blue yarn) that has the DoS statement of purpose glued to it, and have a number of tear-off sticky note sheets with the DoS statement.

Members have also been very busy making blue ribbons (the rememberance type twisted ribbon) secured with a dollop of glue and a straight pin or safety pin. These will be attached to a form going out to each teacher with information about the DoS. GSA members and their allies who are taking part in DoS will also hand out the blue ribbons to students on campus. They have made over **750 ribbons** so far and almost **50 sashes** with close to 20 sashes left over from last year's DoS observance.

All members are encouraged to get as many people to sign up to participate in DoS.
 * //Turns out that there were 54 students who participated in the Day of Silence 2006 at CDO - awesome!//**

All members are required to have a sheet their respective teachers sign off permitting them to remain silent for that day.

This should be an exciting and very challenging day for Day of Silence participants.
