Twenty supporters of peace formed a large human peace sign on the front lawn of Fraser Hall yesterday afternoon. At the center lies Hays junior Jana Mackey, who doubted the sign made a direct impact on the nation's foreign policy, but she thought it was a rally point for students with the same concerns
Creating the peace sign out of people was meant as a visual display to the campus community that students are concerned about the potential war, Kelli Brandt, Leawood junior, said.
"Most students are uninformed or apathetic about the issue but it's important students be active," she said. "You don't necessarily have to change the world, and every little thing helps."

aging to see new faces who weren't involved before "
Travis Weller, Garden City junior, said he wanted to show the peace movement at KU was growing.
"People aren't sure how to get involved or what they can do individually," he said. "We are representing everybody on campus who feels the war is not an option."

calls her angel, died 10 years ago. Kathryn Krehbiel said she would continue their commitment to helping college students.
"She's kind of like the adopted grandma of the section," said band member Ryan Stites, Buffalo Grove, Ill., senior.
Stidham said band members sent Krehbiel cards, and one student gave her a quilt with each band member's name on it.
She always gives him extra money in case she can't make it to
a game, he said.
"Not a lot of people recognize the band," he said. "This is a way for someone to actually do something tangible and let them know they're appreciated."
Stidham said her kind efforts did not go unrecognized.
"She really loves the kids and loves to get to know them a little bit," he said. "As I often tell the kids, having the financial resources to do that is one thing, but to have the spirit to do that is really something different."

result of what you're fighting for?"
Members of the group will lead a discussion after the film. All perspectives will be welcome, said Amberereen Shaffie. Houston junior and group member.
Shaffie said open discussions were sometimes lacking on campus but a good conversation left room for dissent.
"If you talk to people and you have a good discussion, that's a successful event," Shaffie said. "You can disagree with someone and still have progress being made."
The group's goal is embodied in its name; just peace in the middle east. Ajayi-Soyinka said that the phrase "just peace" meant that peace should not come at the cost of more death and destruction. Violence does not bring peace, she said.
"By just peace' we want to recognize that Israel deserves its nation, the Palestinians deserve their nation," she said. "We want equitable treatment for both groups. If one group perceives there is injustice somewhere, then it will not last."
Bryan Seck, Wichita junior said more KU students should educate themselves about the conflict.
"Everyone has an opinion," he said. "But when you ask them, it seems they don't have much knowledge."
Seek took a class on politics in the Middle East and said events like the one tonight were another way students can learn what the media leaves out.
"I don't think you're going to get a really balanced articulation of the situation just by reading the headlines of USA Today," he said.
