SLIDESHOW: Students Commemorate MLK’s Historic March on Washington

Universities around the U.S. held commemorative events on Wednesday, in honor of the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington and Martin Luther King’s historic “I Have a Dream” speech.

In addition, numerous students participated in commemorative events in our nation’s capital. Some even camped out overnight on the National Mall, in order to secure a place during the events, according to The Washington Post.

Students at Howard University, a historically-black institution, participated in a march from their campus to the Lincoln Memorial, where King gave his famous speech.
