Students and Missing Minority Campaign members rallied Tuesday against the Missouri Civil Rights Initiative, which would ban state and local government affirmative action programs. The group started the rally at the Plaza 900 Amphitheater on MU campus, marched through campus and rallied at the steps of Jesse Hall.
