“Students Yes, Soldiers No!” is a protest slogan that promotes the idea that students should seek an education over military service. Designed by San Diego based organization, the Committee on Militarism & the Draft, which focuses on school demilitarization with counter-recruitment activism. The COMD is an anti-militarism organization committed to community education, direct action, and youth outreach. They challenge the military, its effect on society, its budget, and its role abroad and at home. The COMD is also concerned with the racism, sexism, and homophobia that are inherent in the armed forces and Selective Service System.
