More than 300 students from the Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action by Any Means Necessary (BAMN) rally on campus. The event was scheduled to coincide with the University’s filing of a response to a petition to have the U.S. Supreme Court hear two admissions lawsuits against U-M. BAMN wants the high court to hear the cases, but the University doesn’t think it is necessary. The rally Oct. 30 was one in a series of events BAMN organizers are planning to show support for affirmative action. The group also plans a march on Washington, should the case reach the Supreme Court. (Photos by Marcia Ledford, U-M Photo Services)
