Biographical history

Students Toward A New Democracy (STAND) is self-described as "a student organization at the University of Miami that strives to create an activist culture in an historically apathetic student body. We aim to create a foundational activist culture and social network which extends beyond the walls of the school and into the local community. We work in collaborative efforts with existing progressive student organizations to consolidate our resources, collective knowledge, and social capital. Our issues range from Living Wage to environmentalism; gay rights to race issues." - http://www.campusactivism.org/displaygroups-1786.htm
