(Clearwisdom.net) On January 27, volunteers of Friends of Falun Gong and
the local chapter of Amnesty International (AI) jointly held an Information
display and seminar on the persecution of Falun Gong on the campus of Seton Hall
University. Many faculty, staff and students learned the facts about Falun Gong
and tried the exercises during the one-day event.

From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the Falun Gong information display was held at the
entrance to a cafeteria, a busy location. Many students and faculty/staff
members learned about how the Chinese Communist regime had been brutally
persecuting Falun Gong. A TV was set up as well to play truth-clarifying clips
which attracted many passersby. Several hundred fliers were distributed and many
people read the fliers while having lunch in the cafeteria. After reading the
materials, a lot of people expressed their gratitude for the information and
expressed their support for Falun Gong.
From 7 to 9 p.m., interested students attended the Falun Gong seminar held at
a faculty lounge room. Alan Adler, director of Friends of Falun Gong, gave a
keynote speech. The attendees discussed what Falun Gong is, the situation of the
persecution and efforts to end the atrocities. When the seminar concluded,
students expressed their interest in learning the Falun Gong exercises, so
several practitioners taught them the first four standing exercises of Falun
Gong.
The student chapter of AI organized this event and helped distribute fliers
and explain the facts of the persecution. This event was the second joint
venture between AI and Friends of Falun Gong. Volunteers of AI are planning for
another similar event to be held at the end of Spring.
