First of all, let me say that there are advantages to working alone. The lone pro-lifer can more easily avoid negative stereotypes and unconstructive conflicts, for instance. But in ordinary situations I would recommend that any truly dedicated pro-lifer either start or join up with a right-to-life group.
Assuming that working with a group is not possible, what then can be done by our underground pro-lifer?
For starters, he or she could "infiltrate" various campus organizations which have money, and influence the way it is spent. Say, for example, that our underground pro-lifer joins the speakers committee or the campus program council and learns that some folks on the committee wish to bring a well-known speaker who is pro-abortion - like Gloria Steinem - to campus. He or she could suggest that the committee not bring in Gloria Steinem to talk on feminism, but rather bring in Gloria Steinem to debate Mildred Fay Jefferson on feminism and the Roe vs. Wade decision arguing that a debate would be more interesting and bring in a larger audience. Of course, our underground pro-lifer would also make sure that all the local pro-life groups and the media were well-informed of the impending debate.
Other groups to get involved with include:
There are many things that an underground pro-lifer can do while working independently. He or she could put up posters around campus, distribute pro-life literature in the dormitories, or keep a series of letters to the editor on abortion or infanticide going all term. The possibilities abound.
I would caution against vandalism, such as spray-painting pro-life messages on the walls of your school's administration building. An occasional harmless practical joke like wiring the loudspeakers in your sports stadium so you can broadcast pro-life messages during a home football game might seem funny, but such jokes really are often counter-productive. After all, the pro-life movement is dealing with very serious issues.
Finally, it should be noted that many of the ideas presented in the earlier parts of this handbook can be readily adapted for use by an underground pro-lifer. Just add a little imagination and you'll be off and running.
A pro-life speaker might begin his talk with a story of how a baby was born alive at, say, twenty weeks gestation and survived.
After you have caught your audience's attention the trick is to keep it. You must build a bridge to your listener's interests. You must show him why this subject is of interest to him. He will say, "Yes, you caught my attention with that opening line, but why are we talking about this, anyway?" Answer the question directly. You must tell him why this subject is of interest to him, now. You must demand his personal involvement. This, of course, requires that your entire speech be tailored to the audience at hand. An experienced speaker never gives exactly the same speech twice.
State your main idea next. Lay it on the table, sweetly and simply. It should be a single sentence which states exactly what you are going to explain, prove, demand, or describe in the remainder of your speech. Make it short.
Finally, your introduction should offer a preview of the major points of your speech. This serves as a road map for the listener, and should be kept to one or two sentences in length. It must tell the listener where you are at any given place in the speech, where you are taking him next, and how it fits into the plan laid out in your statement of the main idea. In longer speeches especially, it is helpful to review this road map once or twice, at the end of an important point, to refresh the listener's memory. Say, "As you remember, I said I would demonstrate this, this and this. Now, having done so, the next step is to...."
Here are seven forms for good examples:
Humor - if it is appropriate - can be used at any point in your speech. Folks will remember a good joke long after they have forgotten the rest of your words. So much the better, if you can weave a few jokes or puns into your speech. Keep your jokes inoffensive and tasteful.
Review the implications of the examples used in the body of your speech showing where they support the main idea of your speech. Leave the listener with an outline of your argument.
The call for action answers the audience's question "What now?" You must give them an answer entailing at least one course of action which they are able to take. Don't tell them of abstract, pie-in-the-sky catch-all solutions. Give them an idea of what they themselves can do in the upcoming days. Join! Vote! Write to the President! Call your Congressman! Tell your friends! Act now! Contribute! It's up to you!
Above all other things, remember that your audience wants two things of you. First, they want you to speak well. Second, they want you to sit down, so keep it short.
These are some guidelines for the effective delivery of your speech:
The following are some guidelines for running an efficient meeting:
In the belief that all human life is sacred, we have come together to uphold its worth in the eyes of the university community.
We believe that human life begins at the moment of conception and continues until the moment of natural death. We believe that there is no such thing as a human life not worth living, and in a society where human life is rapidly becoming less valuable than material goods we shall defend the most defenseless of all human lives: the elderly, the handicapped, and the unborn. We shall resist any attempts to solve people's problems which involve the elimination of innocent people. We shall advocate and strive to enhance the dignity of all human life. We shall also strive to educate the university community about the value of human life and to teach it how to seek out and implement living solutions to the problems of our times.
We shall be a nondenominational group and, as such, shall embrace all persons who value the sacredness of human life. Our language and actions shall be consistent with the principles of nonviolence. We believe that the value of human life is an issue of universal public concern and not merely a matter of personal morality.
With these ideals in mind, we present this constitution as the framework for Students for Life and hope that through its efforts we may make those same ideals a reality.
Membership in Students for Life shall be open to all registered students, faculty, and staff of the University of Pittsburgh. Student membership shall at all times be at least three-quarters of the total membership. No hazing or illegal discrimination shall be used as a condition of membership in this organization.
Prospective members are welcomed throughout the year and can become active members at any time.
In order to become an active member and maintain this status, one needs to attend two consecutive meetings and become involved in at least one project. Minimum involvement in any project shall be determined by the Executive Board, with special attention given to the project chairman.
Inactive members are members who support the group in its beliefs but are unable to fulfill or maintain the requirements of active membership.
Section 2
Honorary membership in Students for Life shall be extended to all persons who do not qualify for active or inactive membership but nonetheless support the group's ideals and help out with its projects. Honorary members share all the privileges of regular members except that of voting and that of directly receiving university funds for travel expenses and other approved purposes.
The General Assembly of Students for Life shall consist of all active, inactive, and honorary members.
The Executive Board of Students for Life shall consist of the president, vice-president, and business manager of the group. All officers must be active members who are full-time students who have been elected by a majority of the membership present at the election. The term of office for all officers and committee chairmen shall be one year commencing on the first day of April and ending on the last day of March.
Officers and committee chairmen shall hold the same voting powers as all other voting members, except for the president, who shall only vote in the event of a tie. He can vote, however, in elections.
Section 2: The President
As the executive head of Students for Life, the president shall preside at all meetings of the Executive Board and the General Assembly. He shall appoint the chairmen of all standing and ad hoc committees. He is ultimately responsible for calling all meetings and notifying the General Assembly of them. The president also performs all other duties incident to his office as may from time to time be assigned to him by the Executive Board or the General Assembly.
Section 3: The Vice-President The vice-president shall assist the president and perform his duties in the event of the president's absence, resignation, or removal from office, or other circumstances that prevent him from doing his work. He shall also perform any other duties that the Executive Board or the General Assembly assigns him to do.
Section 4: The Business Manager The business manager shall, in conference with the president, be responsible for the everyday business of the group, in particular for the finances and business dealings with the university.
Section 5: Honorary Members of the Executive Board The presidents of Carnegie-Mellon University Association for Life, Duquesne University Students for Life!, and Carlow College Students for Life shall be honorary members of the Executive Board of Students for Life at the University of Pittsburgh. They shall share in all the privileges of honorary membership and, in addition, shall have the privilege of attending all meetings of the Executive Board and advising its regular members.
There shall exist five standing committees: Publicity, General Education, Social Service, Political Education, and Business and Finance. Other ad hoc committees may be created as needed by the Executive Board. These committees can only become standing by amendment and shall be terminated at the end of each term of office or when the Executive Board elects to disband them.
Section 2: Publicity
This committee shall be concerned with publicizing all actions and programs that Students for Life shall sponsor, as well as publicizing the group and its objectives in general.
Section 3: General Education
This committee shall be responsible for educating the general membership and the campus community about the non-political aspects of current pro-life issues, particularly the biological and ethical aspects of these issues.
Section 4: Social Service
This committee shall be responsible for promoting and managing all volunteer projects aiding persons such as the poor, the elderly, and the handicapped, that Students for Life decides to sponsor.
Section 5: Political Education
This committee shall be responsible for educating the general membership and the campus community about the political and legal aspects of current pro-life issues. It will also manage all marches and demonstrations that Students for Life decides to sponsor or participate in.
Section 6: Business and Finance
This committee shall be responsible for all the financial obligations of each committee and of Students for Life as a whole. It shall handle the group's university account and all fund-raising projects. The business manager is always chairman of this committee.
All members shall be given at least one week's notice of each general meeting, along with special notice of any particular business to be conducted at that time that is known in advance.
All active members who are in good academic standing are eligible to run for any office. Nominations shall be held during the meeting prior to the elections and during the meeting immediately prior to the election, if the membership present determines this to be necessary. Any member can nominate any other member, including himself. Nominees not willing to run for office can refuse the nomination.
Both active and inactive members can vote at the elections of officers. Votes shall be counted by a temporary elections officer who is not running for any office. This elections officer shall be appointed by the incumbent president, subject to the approval, by a simple majority, of all voting members present. Officers are likewise elected by a simple majority of all voting members present.
Any eligible member can run for as many officers as he wishes, although he cannot hold more than one position. If he wins the election for more than one office, he must immediately choose which position that he wants. The vacant office shall then be filled by the candidate with the next largest number of votes in each case.
There will be no absentee or proxy ballots accepted.
Everyday business needs include such items as books, office supplies, educational materials, and other items needed for publicity.
Special events' needs include such things as honoraria for speakers, rental fees for audiovisual equipment, and travel expenses for conventions and marches.
All funding shall come through the Student Government Board and the Office of Student Activities of the university, special donations, and the group's own fund-raising projects.
In order to remove any officer, a proposal must be made and seconded at any general meeting. The officer in question must be notified of this proposal and given the opportunity to resign. If he chooses not to resign, a vote shall be taken by secret ballot at the next general meeting. A two-thirds majority shall be needed to remove any officer, who must then immediately vacate his position.
Section 2
If a vacancy in any office should arise for any reason, it shall be filled by means of a special election at the next general meeting for which appropriate notice can be given to the voting membership. Elections shall be held in the same manner as regular elections, but the term of the office in question shall only extend until the next general election.
Amendments to this constitution can be proposed by any active member at any general meeting. If the proposed amendment is seconded, a vote shall then be taken to determine if it is important enough to draw up and consider at the next general meeting. If this motion passes by a simple majority, the proposed amendment is then written up formally for the next meeting and listed on the agenda for that next meeting's business.
A two-thirds majority is needed for the amendment to pass. The Office of Student Activities must then be notified in writing of this change in the constitution.
Section 2
Robert's Rules of Order Revised by Henry M. Robert is to be used in cases not covered by this constitution.
Using real-time ultra-sound technology, this film details an actual abortion procedure. Dr. Bernard Nathanson, a founder of the National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws and now a prominent pro-life physician, is the narrator of the film. The ultra-sound sequences of the abortion shown in the film have been attacked by members of the pro-choice/pro-abortion establishment who claim that the film has been "doctored." However, inter- nationally renowned ultra-sound experts have testified to the accuracy of the film and the integrity of Dr. Nathanson.
After the film, Dr. James Dattrillo will answer questions and discuss the medical aspects of abortion, including fetal pain and the possiblity of complications which may endanger the life of the mother.
The Carnegie-Mellon University Association for Life is a group of students concerned with a variety of human life issues, including the problems of abortion. Members of the group devote time helping young women who contact Lifeline, a pregnancy crisis center. Students also volunteer at the Jubilee Soup Kitchen in the Hill District.
Abortion has become a "hot" issue on the Carnegie-Mellon campus in recent months, as well as on other college campuses across the state.
