[kmedina67]

Oh Lois, that is amazing! I remember hearing about LAW! Outside the Urbana free library! Wow. 
Between 2001 and 2003, i babysat so others could participate, so i don't remember many details of events. 
There were teach-ins at mckinley foundation.Bigger demonstrations (and counter demonstrations) on north prospect until about 2004.
In 2003, On the day the US invaded Iraq, an interruption of university classes was organized (because war interrupts lives) and we walked through the buildings beating on  buckets and garbage cans. 
Campus anti-war network (CAN), Iraq veterans against the war,  ...
In 2004 the demonstrations moved to the main event, downtown Champaign, and only monthly. 
Then, during the occupy movement, a major portion of aware demonstrated weekly with Occupy CU at different locations around town. We still did the first Saturday in downtown Champaign.
