I personally feel uneasy about the flag on campus because it touches on topics that conflict with my upbringing. I fully respect everyone’s right to express themselves, but I also feel that university spaces should stay neutral on sensitive issues. Seeing the flag makes me feel like my own beliefs aren’t welcome.
Grayson supported: Take down the trans flag at Montclair State UniversityWhen I came to the university, I expected shared spaces to stay neutral so everyone could feel comfortable. I was raised in a home where public areas were kept free of any group specific symbols or flags. I don’t think inclusivity works by highlighting one group over others in common spaces. I just want displays on campus to follow a clear and fair process so everyone feels included. My parents have also expressed regret for sending me here now.
Hannah supported: Take down the trans flag at Montclair State UniversityI come from a Christian household, and seeing the trans flag on campus makes me feel a bit uncomfortable because I’m not used to it. I might feel that a university should stay neutral and not show any one group’s flag. I’d say it’s better if the campus keeps things equal for everyone. That’s why I’d support the flag being taken down, just so no one feels left out or uneasy. It just feels biased and rather not inclusive to all of us.
Alex supported: Take down the trans flag at Montclair State UniversityTake it down now the only flag should be the American flag
Donna supported: Take down the trans flag at Montclair State UniversityI grew up in a religious household as well. So seeing the trans flag on campus feels unfamiliar and makes not just me but my parents a bit hesistant for sending me here . I’d feel that the university should stay neutral and not show any one group’s flag. I’d think keeping the space simple and the same for everyone is better
alison supported: Take down the trans flag at Montclair State UniversityI support this cause because I feel like the flag represents a specific political belief, not just a symbol of inclusion. For some, it conflicts with personal or religious values. I believe campus spaces should stay neutral and not promote one group's views over others. Having this flag up makes some people uncomfortable and can feel divisive. I think it's very important to respect everyone's beliefs and keep a balance on campus.
Ashley supported: Take down the trans flag at Montclair State UniversityIt is abhorrent what this man has done to our states education standards. He deserves life in prison but we will have to settle for removal from office
Joe supported: IMPEACH RYAN WALTERSI’m am appalled at Ryan Walter’s ignorant decision to enforce this in Oklahoma classrooms. Back in 2013, I attended a Catholic high school and in my senior year religion class, they even made it a point to explore the other religions of the world and we even took field trips to different temples and mosques. That is how to properly teach religious history. And it needs to be an elective! No one should have religious beliefs forced upon them!
Samantha supported: IMPEACH RYAN WALTERSAs a student, and believer of Christ. I find this hard to approve. The word of God should be shared, and spread across to neighbours graciously. Not forced upon; that thought has never once crossed my mind. Religion is a choice and a style of life. Ryan Walters should not be in office if that means seeing my peers who are nonreligious, or any other religion who do not follow the same scriptures as us be handed the Bible as if it was homework. It is disrespectful and shouldn't be required. As much as I love the Lord, I also love the comfortability of others around me.
