UND SDS - Walk Out Against the War!

UND SDS has been coordinated a while now to put together an event for March 20th, the week that the USA went to war with Iraq FIVE years ago. In coordination with the March 20th working group with SDS and after we endorsed the call this is what we have going on that day:

The University of North Dakota Chapter of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) is urging students and faculty to Walk Out Against the War in Iraq (and possible War in Iran).

We are urging people to walk out of classes at 9:45 for a day of anti-war education and action at the Loading Dock in the Union. (Attendees free to come and go)

The Schedule is as follows:

10am - Prof. Brian Urlacher - Just War Theory

11am - Prof. Paul Sum - Problems with Democratization Under Occupation

12-1pm - Anti-War March and Free Food!

1pm - Prof. Richard Kahn - The War on Iraq: Educational Issues

2pm - Prof. Cliff Staples - The War for Oil in Iraq

3pm - Prof. Janet Moen - Where Have all the Flower Gone?

This event is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

Also if anyone needs a ride or have any questions and/or concerns, please feel free to email us at sds.und@gmail.com

This is also a child-friendly event where there will be an age variant range of activities and help with childcare.

Thanks for the March 20th working group for part of the poster - we used an image that was posted on the website.

We also released a press release, an email to Professors and faculty to allow classes to attend and an email to other student organizations to help and endorse if they would like.
