Eleven Yale Divinity School students, four Harvard Divinity School Students and 20 other divinity students from around the Northeast were arrested at a demonstration against nuclear weapons at the Electric Boat Company in Groton, Conn. two weeks ago.
Electric Boat manufactures Trident nuclear submarines.
Thirty-one of the students were charged with disorderly conduct and four with criminal trespass, said Sgt. Dick Horan, a spokesman for the Groton City Police.
More than 200 people from seven different divinity schools and theological seminaries gathered for the demonstration, which included a worship service followed by planned civil disobedience.
Followers of Christ
Students from the Yale school and the General Theological Seminary in New York City coordinated the demonstration, calling it the Groton Peace Party.
In a statement released Friday, the Yale disarmament group said. "We come to Groton as followers of Jesus Christ to comfort publicity the evil of nuclear armaments." --The Yale Daily News
