After a week, we decided to intensify our protest by moving to occupy the office of the Board of Regents, on the top floor of the tallest building on campus. That night, campus police forcibly expelled us from the building. There were no arrests.

Our protests did not change policy at the UW, but they did help put the issue of gays in the military on the national agenda. This started the process of transforming federal policy and ultimately bringing about the elimination of anti-LGBTQ laws.
