Find out why the school is denying you. Does the school own the unicycles? This could be a reason (but if they own them why wouldn't they want them used? Who's paying for the unicycles? Is the problem liability? Ask them to have their insurance company cite the dangers of unicycling. There are plenty of insured unicycling programs out there. Alan Tepper, mentioned above, has been doing it since 1982.

The school can say no, but they owe you a real explanation.

I own the unicycles and I already have a bunch of unicycles that I got because they told me the club is okay. Tomarrow I am going to go to see why they are saying I can't do it.

While I was in the shower, I then realized who ultimately is destroying this for me, lawyers. No offense to any lawyers out there but I wouldn't have these liability issues if everybody didn't sue each other. Why can't everybody stop hating eachother and stop sueing everybody for the smallest things? Well I just thought I would thow that out there but I still hate my school for doing this. I made a safety contract.. I guess in the world of lawyers that doesn't count anymore.

Uh actually, you can get a lawyer to sue the school for leading you on. Or something to that effect. I don't know.

But if your contract is legally binding, I don't see why anyone should have an issue with it. Blame the school still. I ALWAYS blamed my school while I was still there. Bad hair day? Blame the school. Boyfriend/Girlfriend dumped you? Blame the school! No unicycle club? BLAME THE SCHOOL!

Could be worse. As soon as I saw the name of the thread that's what I thought. "Could be worse. They could have to wear unfindable uniforms. They could have to bring every single book of theirs home. They wouldn't have to buy 22 books out of which only around 7 are going to be used every day." They would have clubs in their schools. They told me the same thing last year when I brought my uni to school. I left it under the stairs. Genius! Who would take it? The little kids. The janitor put it in the closet. After 15 mins. of looking for him/it(mostly it), I found him, so I asked him where was it. I rode it and secretly took a sigh of relief. I was letting the high schoolers attempt to ride it. My younger sister(actually I'm the youngest sister, my "younger sister" is three yrs. older than me, in Spanish, they'd both be called my older/oldest sister, so I call her my youngest and explain. My "older sister" is 6 yrs. older than me, my brother's 3 years younger than me.) told me not to let them borrow it, but I didn't see the problem. The same kids attempt to ride the same unicycle in the same ways in the parties my older sister throws, she finds no problem THEN. That was a little(ok, way too much) annoying. Then everyone's talking about how I can ride and they can't, etc. and my older sister tells me never to take it to school again. Oh, yeah, and no one in the office wants me to take it back to school because, get this, their reason, because someone could fall. They let us walk and run, we can trip, and they let us sit, we can fall while sitting. It's happened to my sister and me. Anyways, they let kids ollie over folding chairs at school. Why can't they ride a unicycle? It's possibly the safest thing they'd ever do! What problem is there? Don't get me started about the government...and the Anticorruption Prevention Program(de verdad tienen eso asi! doble negativos...creo que lo traduci bien, programa de prevencion anticorrupcion) and it went broke around May and, rumor has it, it's probably going broke again...

And by the way, it's prolly a LOT more corrupt than you can begin to know, having to do with things you will never know.

Funny, our principal tries to save money during summer by limiting the use of the air conditioner.

Wanna trade?

Funny, my old school turned on the A/C in the winter.

If someone sold A/C's here she/he would be filthy stinkin' rich. If someone sold heaters he/she would be poor.
