Dudes, I just had my first experience with Free Hugs! The story:

So, unfortunately, homophobia tends to be something of a problem at my campus. We're not a small school, but the surrounding town is pretty small and a lot of people are disturbingly narrow-minded. A few days ago, a gay student was attacked on the main street in Campustown, just out of the blue. Fortunately, he wasn't seriously injured, and tonight, there were little clusters of people stationed up and down the main street with candy, cookies, and signs declaring, of course, FREE HUGS!

Long story short, my friends and I ran up and down the street to reach every group. It was awesome. There were a few photographers, so I'm hoping I'll be able to find pictures, but I just thought I should share Also, we're trying to plan a Free Hugs day during finals week, because everyone needs some love during finals.

That's awesome

Aw, what a good story! I can't wait to do my own Free Hugs stint.

Hopefully we'll see some pictures soon of your experience.

Great story!

Awww I want a free hugs day.

awwww thats amazing!! i cant wait for my free hugs day!

So, there hasn't been any official planning, but Free Hugs Day 2.0 will hopefully be going down next week. Heck, I'll do it on my own if I need to, but that's just me being moronically stubborn.

Cool story

Awesome story!!! Thanks for sharing

I'm not dead, yet!

Though, my computer was. Ask me about that later, really, it's a fun story x____X

Anyhow, my plan for Free Hugs on the quad fell through, hardcore. No fair. BUT! I did find an article about the original 'Hug-In'. Let me know if there's a problem with the link, because I can always transcribe it to a Word document or something.

it's terrible that people can still be attacked because of such small-minded individuals

The Free Hugs thing was a great idea, though.
Thanks for posting!

*sigh*
The world today...


But, the Hug-in was an amazing idea
