WAR CRIMES PETITION TO THE DOOR OF STANFORD PRESIDENTS OFFICE</b></p>

QUAD<br>PRESIDENT'S OFFICE - BUILDING 10</b></p>

This Sunday, May 3 at noon Stanford Alumni returning to the campus for
a reunion marking the 40th anniversary of the anti-war April Third
Movement will join current students in nailing a petition to the door of
the University President's Office (Building 10) in Stanford's Inner Quad.
The petition asks that Condoleezza Rice and other high government
officials be held accountable for serious violations of law.<BR>
The petition, being circulated by Stanford Says No to War, states:<BR>
<ul>
"We the undersigned students, faculty, staff, alumni, and other
concerned members of the Stanford community, believe that high officials
of the U.S. Government, including our former Provost, current Political
Science Professor, and Hoover Institution Senior Fellow, Condoleezza
Rice, should be held accountable for any serious violations of the Law
(including ratified treaties, statutes, and/or the U.S. Constitution)
through investigation and, if the facts warrant, prosecution, by
appropriate legal authorities."<BR></ul>
Marjorie Cohn, a leader of the April Third Movement and now President
of the National Lawyers' Guild, explained, "By nailing this petition to
the door of the President's office, we are telling Stanford that the
university should not have war criminals on its faculty. There is prima
facie evidence that Rice approved torture and misled the country into the
Iraq War. Stanford has an obligation to investigate those charges."<BR>
Forty years ago last October, many reunion participants nailed a
document on the Stanford Trustees' Inner Quad office door demanding that
Stanford "halt all military and economic projects and operations concerned
with Southeast Asia," launching a campaign that led to the formation of
April Third Movement in Spring, 1969. The A3M's nine-day sit-in at the
Applied Electronics Laboratory brought an end to secret military research
on campus.<BR>
