Zach: I will be around after June 7th, and I plan to continue meeting with my colleagues in CAN. As for our plans for the summer, I'm not sure myself. I hope that we'll continue to do sit-ins and protests at the capitol building, as well as increasing our knowledge of the issues since we won't have classes to worry about.

Chris: Most of our CAN chapter is going to be in Madison for the summer. We are hoping to spend the summer preparing for CAN's national conference which may well be held in Madison this Fall (a decision will be made shortly). We also hope to launch fund-raising efforts over the summer to strengthen our hand financially going into the fall. Further, a good number of us are attending the Socialism 2007 conference in Chicago where we hope to learn more about struggles (today's and yesterdays, successes and failures) and we will network with other antiwar activists and build the student movement there.

Todd: I will be traveling to NYC for an Operation First Casualty action with IVAW and then will be studying abroad in France for a few months. I plan on relaxing and catching up on some reading during this time. When I get back i will be going to the Veterans For Peace National Convention.

Josh: Socialism 2007 in Chicago and whatever else might be going on in Madison when I'm around...I'm going to Kerouac it across the country so hopefully I'll be able to make some meaningful connections with fellow freaks, revolutionaries, and other fellow travelers.

Bernadette: I will be in Madison over the summer, along with most of CAN. So hopefully we’ll all have more time and energy. The plan is just to continue doing… continue to organize, fundraise, and educate ourselves. I too will be attending Socialism 2007 and I’m looking forward to a productive summer!!

Ron: Anything else?

Chris: Thank you for asking us what we think. As a student-activist, it's much nicer to be posed these questions, than the one I heard most often from 2004-2006: "When will the students do their part?" Well, here we are.

Zach: Thank you for interviewing us!
