Scouting Novell..... >>Novell Halts Boy Scout Contributions, Cites Its Anti-Discrimination Policy Saturday, November 11, 2000 BY BOB MIMS THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE Novell Inc. will no longer match employee contributions to the Boy Scouts of America, citing the youth organization's exclusion of homosexual scoutmasters as a violation of the company's anti-discrimina- tion policies. The Provo-based software firm has matched employee donations to a variety of charities through its Community Support Campaign for the past five years. However, company executives decided to end Scouting's participation in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling in June upholding the Scouts' right to exclude gays. "Novell has criteria for organizations that can participate [in the campaign]. It is a fairly standard line about not discriminating on the basis of race, religion or sexual orientation," Novell spokesman Bruce Lowry said Friday. "The Boy Scouts of America no longer complies with that requirement, based on the Supreme Court decision.">> Makes perfect sense given Eric's support for Gore. If what I read from one source is trust, it even more interesting to note that kids from Morman families make up roughly 25% of all boy scouts. A triumph of politics. Peace. GO!!
