On a campus noted for it's political apathy (or enforced neutrality perhaps), I was slightly surprised to learn of a group at the University called No War In Iraq. They seem very well-organised, and have even compiled a collection of articles from Chicago faculty with grants from the Human Rights Program here and Rockefeller Chapel.

War With Iraq? University of Chicago Faculty Respond raises some interesting perspectives on the impending war. Dean Alison Boden's sermon on the difference between evil and sin and Prof. Kenneth W. Warren's assertion that the rich are using the poor to fight their wars are the most intriguing pieces, in my opinion.
