How do you feel seeing military members recruiting young men to the armed service, especially during war time? I see them everywhere: the mall, job fairs, and,most visibly, on college and even high school campuses.
UC Santa Cruz made national headlines when Students Against War protests forcibly evicted a Marines recruiter from campus in 2005, citing moral objection tothe war, and resistence to recruitment at places of higher learning. The FBI listed UCSC as a "credible threat" to national security following theprotest, but the military did not return in 2006 or 2007.
A recruiter is expected to be present at this year's job fair, and students are preparing to rally once again. I'm interested in seeing how otherpeople react to such a highly divisive situation.
