After the speech, students gathered in the Scripps Ampitheater and started to walk through the streets of Athens and started to head north on Court Street. They then headed west on Washington and then south on Union towards Walter Hall.
The students then gathered in Walter Rotunda to continue their discussion on sexual violence on campus. This march is one part of the Take Back the Night campaign.
