TOBE OU SEL
Youth Against Discrimination, or
YAD, as it was more cornmonly known,
was a fairly neworganization to Franklin.
It
was started
in
2000 by Ben Huber and
SarahHowes to help combat discrimina–
tion in the halls of Franklin. They hoped
that through the education of the stu–
dent body, discrimination would lessen.
They feel that
it
has been effective be–
cause it is the first organization of its type
here atFranklinand ithas crossed bound–
aries other clubs have not been able to
cross in the past. During this past year,
Youth Against Discrimination worked
hard to raise money for and participate
in the annual AIDS walk, and were
working hard to become more active in
the school and community.
From Start to Fini h. Megan Spanjian, Shane
Wallace, and Sarah Howe take time out of their
busy chedules to participate in an AlDS walk.
