Occupation of University of Sheffield Engineering Building

Student STWC is currently occupying the engineering building of Sheffield University as part of the Day of Protest against war in Iraq. The engineering building, on Mappin Street, has been targeted because of the department's acceptance of sponsorship by arms manufacturer, Boeing. There are about 100 people in the building at the moment and they've been there about an hour. Local radio (BBC and comercial) has had surprisingly extensive coverage of this and other Sheffield protests.
