建中畢業典禮 用布條關心時事
Banners as symbols of concern for contemporary issues
台北市立建國高級中學，可算台灣男校中的第一學府，每年的畢業典禮由學生組成的畢籌會規劃，而校方通常很尊重學生的理念。今年建中69屆畢業典禮，在象徵學校的紅樓掛上黃、綠、藍、紫以及彩虹共五大布條，各自象徵核能、環保、成長的壓力、反暴力以及同志議題。然而此舉卻遭受到捍衛家庭學生聯盟（簡稱捍家盟）公布學校校長室電話與分機，打爆學校電話，要求撤除彩虹布條。
Taipei Municipal Jianguo High School is considered to be the top boy-only school in Taiwan. Every year, its graduating students plan and organize their own graduation ceremony. The school is usually supportive of the students. This year, the graduating students hung up five banners. These banners are respectively yellow, green, blue, purple, and rainbow-colored, each representing nuclear power, environmental protection, teenage stress, anti-violence, as well as LGBT issues in that order. This action, however, was protested against by Defend Family Student League. They made many phone calls to the school, requesting that the rainbow banner be removed.
畢籌會主席：說被同運入侵 有辱建中生的獨立思考能力
Chairman of the graduation planning committee: We’ve got critical thinking capability!
根據《上報》的獨家報導，建中69屆畢籌會主席鄧致遠表示，畢業典禮期間，校方接受到許多不理智的電話，而且學生們在畢業典禮上表達對社會議題的關心，為避免造成全校師生的困擾，決定將五大布條撤掉。
According to an exclusive report from Up Media, the chairman of the 69th graduation’s planning committee said that the school received many irrational phone calls during the graduation. To avoid causing further disturbance to teachers and other students, they decided to remove all five banners.
然而，該事件並沒有因此而落幕，反而持續發燒。在校方和學生經過多次溝通，將原本長型布條的佈置，調整成短版的五大布條，持續懸掛在紅樓前，直到6月27日止。並且學校中堂有此次畢業典禮的相關設計及布置，「是一個完整的理念」，期待民眾以藝術欣賞的眼光來看待。
However, this incident did not end there. It went on. After discussing with the school many times, the students decided to make adjustments to the original design and to continue hanging the modified banners, hoping people could view the banners as a work of art.

反同團體致電到教育局陳情
Anti-LGBT groups calling Department of Education to protest
捍家盟這次將矛頭指向教育局，強力表達對於彩虹恐怖深入建中校園的不滿，而直屬市長室的台北市政府性別平等辦公室執行長許立民接受採訪回應，辦公室一向抱持尊重多元性別的態度。同時在相關政策上積極倡議來保障同志權益。
建中學生雖不到20歲的年紀，但對社會的關懷、同志權益的尊重、學校雙方溝通過程和成熟度，遠高於早已進入社會的不理性抗議民眾。
Defend Family Student League blamed this incident on the Department of Education, expressing anger about gay issues entering school campus. However, the executive officer of the gender equality office said in an interview that they support and embrace gender diversity. They would also engage in active advocacy to protect gay rights. Even though these high school students are young, they show a high level of maturity in their concern for the society, respect for the LGBT rights, and communication with the school. They are much more mature than those irrational protesters.
