People chanted around the intersection for 20 minutes or so.
After police ordered the protesters to disperse, all but 24 went to the sides to support those who would be arrested.
Left to right, Andrew Peake, Rob Roy, unknown, and Jessica Rockwell redirect the protest to Mrak Hall.
The march terminates at Mrak Hall where they demand to see The Hoff.
Along with the crowd of protesters, Mrak staffers were kept out of the building during the lockdown, while others were locked in.
Who wouldn't want to protest in such an idyllic setting? Picture taken from Chem Annex.
