Similar chants by marchers were directed to
the new dorms as they continued on toward the
research laboratories. During the march, many
of the participants expressed utter bafflement
as to where they were being led.

When the crowd finally reached the research
laboratories, people surrounded the barb-wire
fence and yelled "what is going on." After a
few of these chants, the marchers began to
demand that the laboratories "get out." No one
was ever seen inside the confines of the gate
while the marchers yelled.
