[free-sklyarov] Quick Query for Campus Campaign

How many universities are represented by people on this list?
I.e., if we print up flyers specifically oriented to students
or otherwise plan to raise awareness on college campuses, how
many campuses would we be talking about?
People here at Princeton seem a bit surprised when they hear
about Sklyarov's arrest; sounds like that DeCSS thing, they think.
But they are positively shocked when told that Sklyarov is a grad
student, doing his dissertation on the stuff that got him nicked.
When you point out he's one of them, it gets their attention.
I've handed out a lot of those flyers from the San Jose protest,
but I notice that it makes little mention of the fact that he's
a student. And, that this mess is about research he's doing as
a student. If we want an on-campus Free Dmitry campaign, we
need to emphasize this.

these Boycott Adobe shirts.]
