Petition to DePaul

DePaul Stadium Naming Rights - Sign Petition

Our sister Erika Wozniak, a teacher at Oriole Park Elementary, has started a petition asking for a portion of the money made the taxpayer-funded DePaul University stadium deal to be given back to Chicago Public Schools to help fund our students' education. Erika, a DePaul alum, writes: "As Chicago taxpayers are helping to fund this stadium, we ask, in the spirit of St. Vincent DePaul, that the university steps up and gives back to the deserving students of Chicago Public Schools."

PETITION BACKGROUND

In light of the budget crisis in Chicago, we feel it is reasonable to ask for a portion of the money made on this stadium deal to be given back to Chicago Public Schools to help fund our students' education so that someday they will be able to get into a wonderful University, such as DePaul.
