March • Women and men unite and march through the dorms Wednesday night chanting to speak out on violence against women. It was time to “take back the night” the crowd chanted, “We’re not babes, we’re not chicks, so stop thinking with your dicks.” The group ended its march at the Puvungna Indian Burial grounds, gathering around a bonfire and giving students the chance to speak out about violence and abuse.
