Zak, president of the University of
Iowa student government.
UI has joined the WRC — a
non-profit group with the intent
of monitoring the working condi
tions in factories that produce
university-licensed apparel —
but students at the Iowa City cam
pus want the administration to re
nounce the Fair Labor Associa
tion.
Groups such as Students
Against Sweatshops, the UI or
ganization that has led the
charge, say they don’t like the
FLA because it receives funds
from clothing manufacturers
such as Nike, Eddie Bauer and
Reebok.
Zak said student protests,
which have been going on since
the beginning of the year, have
“really been heated since Mon
day.” There have been no arrests
related to the protests at the
28,846-student university.

Students in Ann Arbor, Mich,
claim the University of Michigan
was “one of the first schools to
have a mass prostest” about the
WRC, said Michael Grass, news
editor for the Michigan Daily.
(( Compared with other
schools, our protests have
been relatively peaceful.

In March of 1999, 30 students
stormed the office of University
President Lee Bollinger and oc
cupied it for 51 hours. Michi
gan’s administration released a
“code of ethics” as a result of the
students’ actions.
In more recent action at Michi
gan, which, like Oregon, is one of
11 “Nike schools,” students
staged a three-day sit-in protest at
the dean’s office during the first
week of February.
Michigan has signed on to the
WRC.
“Compared with other schools,
our protests have been relatively
peaceful,” Grass said.
Matt Clark, the student body
president-elect at University of
Minnesota, said the WRC
protests at his school were also
relatively smooth.
“The popular opinion was to
sign on to the WRC,” he said.
After protests at that campus
two weeks ago, the University’s
president “listened to the stu
dents and signed on,” Clark said.
At the University of Wisconsin
campus, a crowd of students was
prevented from occupying a
chancellor’s office by campus po
lice who used pepper spray. The
late February incident was one of
the most violent protests associ
ated with the WRC this year.
Wisconsin has since signed on
with the WRC.
Emerald reporter Emily Gust con
tributed to this article.

before and I wasn’t allowed. ”
Matt Dyste, whose Johnson
Hall office window faces the oc
cupiers’ snack section, said the
protesters are not a bother to
him.
“I think they have a cause they
believe in, and I admire that,” he
said.
Adam Blair, a senior majoring
in sociology, said the occupying
tactic is one that has worked in
other social movements.
“It’s really powerful,” he said.
Blair plans to camp as long as the
protest continues and the experi
ence has been empowering.
“The discussions have been
amazing,” he said.
Nick Larson, however, said he
does not blame Frohnmayer for
not signing because of the tactics
protesters are using.
“It doesn’t seem effective to
me,” said Larson, a senior major
ing in political science. “The is
sues involving workers’ rights
should be left to the company it
self and not to outsiders. Unless
they are major stockholders in
the company, they should keep
to themselves.”
Pat Fields, a sophomore major
ing in political science, also dis
agrees with the tactic.
“I think it could be done bet
ter,” he said.
Fields said students should ap
proach the situation more profes
sionally to get better results.
University executive assistant
president Dave Hubin said there is
a feeling within the administration
that the students are highlighting
an issue that is important to all.
“I don’t sense any tension,” he
said. “The students have been re
spectful.”
Whether all students agree
with the tactics, the protesters
plan to stay at Johnson Hall until
Frohnmayer signs on with the
WRC.
Meanwhile, campers expect the
colony of tents, which they are
calling the “occupation zone,” to
grow.
