	On March 5th, nearly 1000 students, professors, and alumni have gathered outside the building where the board is meeting for the first time this month. Several important student leaders have gone in to speak with the board directly to convince them to integrate the dorms. Some of the counter-protesters are also in the building, hoping to prevent the board from capitulating. The protest outside is currently calm, but tensions are high, and violence is possible.
