We ask those NU students who were silent on Friday: Why?

April 27, 2008· By Quinn Thacker and Gautam Bahadur

Northwestern students marked the national Day of Silence on campus Friday, protesting discrimination and harassment against lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders. We asked participants why they were silent, and then witnessed the breaking of the silence at the Rock that evening.

  1. What an awesome feature. My favorite photo is the one that says “for her,” and I love the inclusion of both still photography and video. Great job!
