A message from Art Robinson

Dear Friends,
There will be a rally in support of Professor Higginbotham and the three Robinson OSU PhD students on the OSU Memorial Union Quad beginning at 2:30pm on April 20 - this coming Wednesday. This rally is being organized by the Linn County Republicans. If you are able to attend, please come out and help us.

The rally begins at 2:30 pm on the the Memorial Union Quad (14th & Monroe, Corvallis, OR). Parking is $1.00 per hour in the student lots - free parking behind the Hilton Hotel - parking lot P (www.oregonstate.edu/campusmap). Free 2 hour parking is also available in surrounding areas.

I will be speaking to the Linn County Republican Women's meeting at 11:45 am on Wednesday April 20 at Pop's Branding Iron restaurant (corner of Pacific Boulevard and Madison Avenue in SE Albany) which is about 3 hours before the rally begins. I'll speak again at the rally in support of the students and Professor Higginbotham.

The OSU President, Edward Ray, still refuses to speak with the Robinson students or with me, even though he has been free with his criticism of us behind our backs. So, we will take our message to him on his own campus. (I know, he doesn't own it. The taxpayers own it, but he thinks he does.)

Lars Larson, broadcasting from the Memorial Quad on Friday, opened this public discussion at OSU. We will continue it with the rally on Wednesday.

Will President Ray have the courage to attend this rally and speak for himself? I have challenged him to debate the matter on the Quad on Wednesday at 3:00 pm. Ray's friend Peter DeFazio was not courageous enough to debate. Is Ray?

Come on Wednesday and see.

Thank you for all of your help.
Art Robinson
