A press release simply puts forward our principled stand on the issue. It is, however, not a guarantee that the Universities or the Govt. will act on them. In-fact it would be better to assume that they may not do anything in our favour. And it here that as a Movement that we can make a difference. We simply take the issue to the people along with our stand and put pressure on the Govt. through the collective. --

I agree that these are not going to be effective enough, but these are part of the campaign. Besides this will help us to get all our arguments together. This will help each of our colleagues to use them whenever they speak. we have to take the first steps some where.
If you have another way of conducting a campaign please let me know.
