This site was created by students involved in antiwar actions on February 15, 2007. It was set up as a tool to facilitate communication between different campus groups and to allow visitors an opportunity to get a grasp of the scope and diversity of the Feb15 actions.
The Feb15 protests were initiated by activists at UC Santa Barbara who had been organizing a student strike for weeks. After hearing of UCSB’s efforts, Columbia University in New York signed on to organize a strike as well. Immediately afterwards, more than two dozen other schools began planning various Feb15 antiwar actions on their campuses, including solidarity walkouts and rallies. See the ‘List of Actions‘ page for more details.
While each action was organized along the theme of bringing the troops home, immediately ending the war (or wars), and building the student antiwar movement, the actions were diverse in their organizations, tactics, demands, and messaging. There was no one group planning these events. As such, please see their individual statements.
