Call for Action in Egypt

P.A.in.T. and UMF Amnesty folks will be tabling in the UMF OLSEN STUDENT CENTER from 9:30 - 10:45 a.m. and in Roberts outside Lincoln Auditorium from 10:45 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. while a faculty panel takes place.

We will also be at a table in the Student Center from 1:30 - 3 p.m. to get signatures on a petition to the Egyptian authorities calling for them to rein in their security forces and allow for peaceful demonstrations of the Egyptian people, as well as not using disproportionate violence against the demonstrators.
