Who Are We? DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!!


The myth of drugs: The sds was founded in the 60's and because many touted drugs as a solution to societies problems, were labled as drug addicts and this stigma sticks to this day. The truth is the sds has always sought to solve problems through activism and not through numbness. None of our officers from the fall semester advicate or use drugs.

The myth of bombs: The sds has always been active in bringing free speech rights, workers rights and community action to their schools. In the late 60's and early sevnties, students frustrated with the movment formed the weather underground. They were responsible for riots and bombings and other violent actions.
THE SDS IS NOT THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND AND DOES NOT ADVICATE VIOLENCE OF ANY SORT.

Stundents Against Victory Myth: The SUNY Orange sds has students with varying opinions on the war in Iraq. While many members attend protests, we do not tell members what to believe on any issues. We also support former memebrs Jen and Peter who have recently enlisted in the army and marines.
