Colorado College Pictures
These are the few pictures that I was able to take, mostly due to nothing happening worth dragging the camera out of the bag and turning it on. I apologize for the poor quality; I am not a photographer of any skill, and the camera is old.
Without further ado, here you go.
These were the first signs we saw upon getting to the campus.
This young lady was protesting something, but I never got the specifics...
At Armstrong Quad, the crowd divided itself up by sympathies. This is the Palestinian side at the beginning of the speech.
This is the Israeli side at Armstrong Quad at the beginning of the speech.
This is the Israeli side again, 45 minutes into the speech.
This is the Palestinian side again. Note the superior staying power.
And, lastly, this is the no protest line between the two sides after some heated words were exchanged. There were 24 police officers. Stephen counted them.
The entire exercise was pathetic, IMHO. I would have taken more pictures, but there was nothing there worth recording.
Any comments/suggestions re. photo size, quality level, or improved captions are appreciated.

Posted by: jimmymac on September 16, 2002 05:16 PMUnfortunately, we did not stay long enough to hear him speak. Stephen had ordered closet doors from home depot, and they were supposed to get there by 1pm (they never showed). Pipes spoke at 12:30, so we had already left.
Sucked pretty bad.
Sorry about that. I was pretty disappointed to miss him.
