I Love a Good Protest

While many activists insist that its damaging to a cause to "live in the 60s" (aka carry signs and organize marches), I still think there's a lot to be said for the hippie, old school way of going about things.

Recently, the Living Wage group here at the University of Georgia held a protest in which they marched across campus in a bid to draw attention to the low wages paid to non-faculty employees at the university. Ignoring the university's restrictions on free speech, they left the Tate Student Center (one of two free speech zones on campus) to march to President Adams' office. The Red and Black student newspaper, for once, has some pretty solid coverage, complete with video.
