Yesterday, students at the University made their voices heard loud and clear, staging a walkout shortly after noon EDT. Hundreds of students made the walk from Cannan Green to the Colonnade, where a number of students gave impassioned, rousing speeches before the crowd to remind the Board of Trustees that they are, in fact, the heart and soul of the University, along with the alumni. Without students, there is no university.
