	TITLE: Country Reports on Human Rights Practices: Turkey 2001
		Despite the Government's cooperation with unscheduled foreign inspection teams, public pledges by successive governments to end the practice, and government initiatives designed to address the problem, torture continued to be widespread, particularly in the southeast.
		The Government continued to enforce a more than 50-year-old ban on the wearing of religious head coverings at universities or by civil servants in public buildings, claiming that such coverings were inconsistent with the secular principles of the state and could constitute a form of pressure on other women.
		The percentage of women in government and politics does not correspond to their percentage of the population, although there are no legal restrictions on political activity by women, the Constitution calls for equal political rights for men and women, and many women are active politically.

		Today, the dependence of schools on federal funds has become such that formerly independent schools are willing to do nearly anything to appease the government in order to retain their funding.

		She notes that with the high level of government funding for private schools has come an amount of regulation that is virtually directly proportionate.

	Archived: Secretary's Letter to Principals on Religion and Public Schools
		First, schools must protect the right of individual students, in their personal capacity, to express their religious faith, or to speak about religious matters, to the same extent they are permitted to engage in nonreligious expression, or to speak about nonreligious topics.
		Public schools may teach about religion — for example, in classes on history, music, the arts, or comparative religion, the Bible (or other scripture)-as-literature, the role of religion in history — but public schools may not provide religious instruction.
		Our public schools should not be the public space for a war on values but the public space where we educate our children, help them to build good character, and teach them about the many freedoms, including the freedom of religion, that are embodied in our nation's Constitution.

		Last Friday, President Bush released his plan for helping students and schools recover from the Hurricane Katrina tragedy. While there are good components, what stands out is the administration’s attempt to use the devastation wrought by Katrina as political cover for pushing school vouchers on the nation.
		School prayer is a defining issue for the Religious Right, for it crosses the line in church-state separation enabling teachers to actually impose their religious beliefs on their students.
		Rather, it is an unprecedented effort to coerce school districts, through the threat of the withholding of federal funds, to comply with a selective and inaccurate interpretation of constitutional law.
