Respect Life Club
Description:
We are a group of students concerned about the treatment of the unborn in this country. The mission of the CMU Respect Life group is to educate and inform the Carnegie Mellon campus of the statistics and facts on the dangers of abortions. We want to make sure that all human life is cherished from conception to natural death. We believe that abortions only devalue human life in the eyes of society and we desire to respectfully alter the perception in the world and on our campus that abortion is a woman￢ﾀﾙs only choice.
