    The school has taken public input on setting aside the school as a safe haven for homosexuals, but Mayor Richard Daley has announced opposition to the idea. Laurie Higgins of the Illinois Family Institute was asked what that means to the campaign against it. (See earlier story)

    "It gives enormous weight because, unlike in many communities, the school board in Chicago is not elected...," she explains. "They are appointed by Mayor Daley. So for [him] to come out in opposition to the school, my understanding is that carries enormous weight."
