Tinker Tour theme opens at OSMA

As Gabby, the Tinker Tour bus, wheeled into town for a stop at Kent State University Oct. 1, we became aware of another way to celebrate Mary Beth Tinker, Mike Hiestand and the myriad of student journalists, their advisers and families who endorse and support the idea that the Constitution and the right of free expression applies to students.

The Tinker Tour Theme Song.

With lyrics and music created by SPLC Executive Director Frank LoMonte, performed by California’s Carlsbad High School Chamber Singers, filmed and edited by the school’s television students, the song premiered  immediately following Tinker’s keynote presentation at the Ohio Scholastic Media Association’s Region 1 Conference.
