CampUS Strike for Peace Campaign List of PentaVersities

[strike one]

My petition (see previous CampUS post) will be delivered to the White House by Medea Benjamin on my first day of school, September 26. We can all deliver it again with signatures near the last day of school in June 2006. Signatures will be collected throughout the academic year in a sustained information outreach effort to inform our 300-plus Pentagon-dependent campus communities about weapons development in our schools.

I am not asking anyone else to strike—in fact, I advise against it—but please support this massive effort.
