Junior | Economics “In general, peaceful protests are a great way to get a point across. Although, there are some better ways to express one’s opinions on creating change.”
Briana Watkins Freshman | Psychology “No, because those who protest come across angry and bystanders don’t respond well to shouting, chanting, and sometimes marching.”
Jessica Winston Freshman | Nursing “Not really, but I feel like it can ence. Depending on the issue and how people interpret the information shared.”
Stephanie Drees Freshman | Exercise Science “It’s ridiculous when people shove their ideas down other’s throats. Everyone’s entitled to an opinion but what matters the most is how you go about expressing your views, respectfully.”
