Rather than walk out, Media High School students walk in to discuss Jena 6 controversy

While some students are participating in "walk outs" to protest the racially-charged incidents in Jena, Louisiana, last year, students from Media Communications Technology High School in Boston have organized a "walk in" - to extend rather than shorten their learning.
