About six students set up a demonstration depicting waterboarding torture of Guantanamo Bay detainees on Wednesday. Then, they demonstrated a different kind of treatment and symbolically washed the feet of a student dressed as a detainee.
Jake Olzen is a 23-year-old pastoral studies graduate student at the Jesuit school in Chicago. He says the demonstration symbolizes the violence shown in the war and juxtaposes with people's capacity for nonviolent compassion.
