tive board election by a narrow
margin last Tuesday.

lodged complaints that "certain
fundamental rules may have
been broken" and will challenge
the outcome of the election, he
said in an e-mail statement.
The McKissick ticket did not
immediately return a request for
comment at press time Wednes

Guilford War Response:
Monday's Learn-In
Casey Creel
News Editor
As U.S. and British troops
slowly advanced towards
Baghdad, some Guilford students
and faculty considered a broad
range of the reasoning and cir
cumstance behind the current
war against Iraq last Monday in
what may be becoming a Guilford
tradition: the learn-in.
Similar to the college's re
sponse to the Sept. 11 terrorist
attacks, the learn-in offered fac
ulty thinking about war in terms
of just-war theory, the current
geopolitical situation, Quakerism,
the differing world views of other
nations towards America, and
peace activism.

In contrast to the Sept. 11 -
themed learn-in, which came
several weeks after the attacks,
this presentation served as a re
sponse both to the year-long pro
cess of the Bush administration's
push towards war, and to the
actual fight, only five days under
way.
Also, the previous learn-in of
fered more seminars, in workshop
form; this year's was four panel dis
cussions, attended by a range of
10 to 50 students at each.
The first panel, which ad
dressed religious and philo
sophical war theory, concerned
the question of whether or not
this war is seen as just from sev
eral perspectives.
