In my area, AIDS was specifically mentioned as one of the major reasons. That info might have come from a source outside the school system, though. My mom had a contract with UofI at the time and was a clinical counselor for their AIDS clinic. There's a good chance that's where I read about those details. The myths surrounding AIDS back in the 80's somewhat intrigued me.
