The issue is how to handle the building takeovers they say threaten to end the spring semester.

On April 23, 1968, student protesters began what would become an eight-day, five building takeover of campus.

He said those protests, which involved rallies and teach-ins, produced far greater results than the building takeovers.

Leaders of the building takeover quickly won a pledge from Seattle Public Schools superintendent Forbes Bottomly that no effort would be made to evict them by force.

He defended students who had been arrested for taking part in building takeovers during the Columbia University protests of 1968, including his own son.

Last winter, at the time of the building takeover, he was an independent student senator.

In recent history, it has been the place for many university protests and the subject of several building takeovers.

Ultimately, the Cornell Administration, particularly Vice President Steven Muller, negotiated an end to the building takeover.

It was in this context that Chesney pioneered the advertising practice of the "building takeover."

"The Latino residence would not have happened without the building takeover."
