Every school I attended had an auditorium...it was usually an auditorium on its own, or a combination auditorium/gym.

I don't agree with the people who are objecting to President Obama's speech; I think people need to just calm down about the whole thing. I also don't get the idea of why they even need permission slips for this speech.
However, there's a difference between Bush's speech on 9/11 and this pre-planned speech. Plus they couldn't have gotten permission slips in the hour or two before the speech.
