SANTA BARBARA February 15, 2007 - Nearly 1,500 UCSB students, staff, faculty members, and local residents participated in a powerful and transformative strike against war on February 15th. The day culminated with a mass sit-in on Highway 217, the main freeway leading to campus, that blocked traffic for roughly two hours and a lock-down of the campus administration building, Cheadle Hall.
