A key strategy in ending polygraph abuse, and ultimately bringing about the abolishment of polygraph screening, is to enlighten those whom our government would polygraph about "the lie behind the lie detector." College campuses are a key recruiting ground for agencies like the CIA, FBI, NSA, and others that subject applicants (and even interns) to this voodoo science. Thus, AntiPolygraph.org is beginning an intitiative to inform students on America's campuses before their first seance with a polygraph chartgazer.

If you are a college student or faculty member, or if you live near a college campus, please print out and post copies of AntiPolygraph.org's posters in appropriate places on your campus. You can download them  in a single PDF file here:

On some posters, after printing, you should use scissors to create detachable strips at the bottom with AntiPolygraph.org's internet address.

Appropriate places for posting would include public message boards and kiosks in dormitories, student unions, and individual departments.

Advantages of this approach, which has the potential to reach many thousands nationwide, are that it is inexpensive and can be done with a high degree of anonymity: you needn't fear official retaliation.

In addition to college (undergraduate) campuses, I would make sure that your poster finds it way to every law school in the country.  Not only might this enlighten the students who will ultimately be confronted with polygraphy in their careers, it might stimulate discussion within the various school administrations and lead to law school review articles and formalized oral presentations and debates.

George...

I am excited about your plan.

I am already in the process of rigging up some schools where I live.

I truly believe that

Is your notion of a lively site a censored pro-polygraph one ???

Poster-Boy,

Thanks for your note! Although I do not know how many times, and in what places, AntiPolygraph.org posters have been posted, I can report that both of the posters thus far available have been downloaded hundreds of times each.

Poster-Boy,

Your observation about a "chain reaction" in the dissemination of the truth about polygraphy is astute. At some point, this chain reaction is going to reach critical mass, and the polygraph house of cards will be blown away.

A check on the area college posters that I had posted showed that 6 had to be totally replaced.  I posted them three sheets deep.  
The word does get out there bit by bit.  While I understand the suggestion made to me by certain LE agents that what we are doing is tantamount to climbing a greased mountain, they, and others, fail to realize that we already knew this fact and prepared accordingly.
The wheels of change move incredibly slow, but they do in fact move.
I further support the poster initiative, and suggest that more public places become infiltrated with them.  It is when those of us out here who have no desire for any job in law enforcement or any financial gain to be made through either support of or submission to the polygraph that the wheel will gain momentum.
Best to all,
Seeker
