"I just wanted to say thank you for coming to my school this week. I go to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, and GAP set up their photos infront of our student center...Many people would say you are just trying to use scare tactics and you aren't proving your point. I think you are proving your point loud and quite clear. Thank you for your work!"
--P. A.; Miami University, Student
"I just wanted to inform you of the wonderful events that are being planned for you here in Cincinnati. Your reputation precedes you, and preperation has been made. Take care of yourselves, for there is no one else, on
heaven or earth, who will."
--Beast.; University of Cincinnati
"I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all that you have done on the University of Idaho campus and have done and are doing elsewhere...Thank you for taking a message that so needs to be heard to people that don't want to hear it...I am an RA here at U of I and through the topic of abortion brought up as a result of you coming here I was able to ultimately share the Gospel with a woman on my hall. I had been searching and praying for an opportunity to share with this woman for a long time and the coming of your project allowed God to open that door wide open."
--K. W.; University of Idaho, Student
"If my little brother can't buy a Playboy because it has naked women, why should he be forced to look at gigantic pictures of corpses? GAP knows they are wrong, or they would not hide behind a metal barrier and video tape the crowds in case of needing to ID someone. Those at WSU that let this sick anti-choice demonstration come here should lose their jobs, they are biased and most likely were paid off by GAP organizers. Free speech should not include lies."

"I recently found out that a young lady I know is pregnant. She had made up her mind to have an abortion the same week that The Genocide Awareness Project was visiting campus. One day when she was leaving her job, what does she see right smack in front of the building she works in... It was none other than the G.A.P. display. She decided to take a look at the pictures and talk with the volunteers. That day she decided not to have an abortion."
--K.W.; Ohio State University, Student
"I do not support your conservative religious propaganda. I am appalled that Miami University has let you set up shop on campus and I intend to make my views known to the university administrators."
--Student; Miami University, Student
"A couple of months ago, the Genocide Awareness Project made a stop at our campus and created quite a stir. I heard several students, some of my friends included, complain about how "sick and twisted" an organization you must be, to put such disturbing pictures up for students to see. I was angered, because every single one of them failed to realize that it was not your organization that was responsible for the bloodshed of millions of unborn children. Many complained that they thought the CBR did that only to make pro choicers feel guilty. I know that your intent is to educate, rather than to impose guilt, but my feeling is that anyone who can look at a picture of an aborted fetus and hear the facts that your volunteers so professionally present without coming to the conclusion that abortion is genocide should feel guilty. "

"I go to college at Wright State University, and I would like to thank you for opening peoples eyes to the horror of Abortion. People like to dehumanize that which they kill, and I'm glad someone finally "forced" them to look at it not as a lump of flesh, but as a person."
--C. M.; Wright State University, Student
"It is disturbing to see these reactionary sensationalists have access to our student body, and our university. If you want to have a discussion there are plenty of ways of doing this and hearing both sides. This is ridiculous"
--M. P.; University of South Florida
"I just don't see/hear conversations in support of abortion anywhere on campus anymore as I used to - (am I out of touch? - or have you changed the spiritual climate?)"
--J. G.; University of Florida, Student
"The violent rhetoric of fanatacism cannot be allowed to hide behind the social acceptability of a cause. WSU is an institution of higher learning. Students are here to educate themselves, they are here to fight the ignorance and deception used by groups like (CBR). Demagogues should not - cannot - be allowed to stir public emotions to a boiling point."
--K.A.; Washington State University
"I just wanted to say thank you once again for what you have done for me this week, here at USF. Everybody has a story and some go untold. Mine has always been untold, but this week seeing those pictures and talking to such kind people, such as yourself, I was able to tell my whole and complete story to someone I met out there. I believe God led her to me, because she gave me a paper that has truly helped me. I would not have met her if not for you all being there. Thank you so much, maybe one day I can influence somebody's life, like you have influenced mine. Until then thank you and may God keep you in the palm of his hand."
--A. C.; University of South Florida, Student
"As an open-minded, multicultural woman, I too was disgusted by the pictures displayed by the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform. [But] . . . it promoted a dynamic interchange of opinions and an intense amount of dialogue between many different people"
--L. E.; University of Kansas, Graduate Student
"I think your program was tremendous. I know for sure that the business major folks were talking about it, and if it only opened doors for those types of conversations, then it was worth it alone! But, as you know, it accomplished much more than that. Secondly, I believe that it kind of woke up Christians on the campus to bring back a much needed life breath to our own beliefs on the abortion issue, and it actually caused me to receive a little push. I realized how stagnant I had become (without knowing it) on standing up for the rights of the unborn. I know that the Lord's heart is truly with this issue, and I can say that on top of it all, the "unseen" spiritual realm impact won't fully be noticed for awhile, but I do believe that the program brought a supernatural force to break something in the spiritual realm. I could just feel that! Something truly happened spiritually on this campus, and I believe that it will play a vital role in the up-coming revival at UT."
--A. B.; Univesity of Tennessee, Student
"I'd like to applaud the Center fo Bio-Ethical Reform for provoking a whirlwind of discussion on campus already. Sunday evening was the first time that I've ever seen a group of seven guys sitting in Mrs. E's [a campus cafeteria] actively discussing social policy, ethics and morality. Whether or not you agree with the position of the demonstrators, the parallels that the group has drawn demand duscussion."
--S. R.; University of Kansas, Student
"I was really encouraged by CBR's visit this week. I was also very blessed by being a volunteer and discussing the issue with passersbys. The CBR staff was great; they really knew their stuff. If anyone could listen to Mr. Cunningham speak and remain pro-abortion, they must be either indescribably cruel (I encountered MANY students who agreed that abortion was murder, but insisted it was necessary to control the population!) or brain-dead. His arguments were faultless, and extremely logical."
--C. W.; University of Tennessee, Student
"When I came into this week I was not sure how I stood or where I morally should stand on abortion, but now there is no doubt in my mind that abortion is in every sense killing and morally wrong."
--R; University of Florida, Student
"I am happy that this display appeared on campus, in an academic milieu, where students are not to be fed some party line, but taught to think by being exposed to different points of view. Jesus has been recrucified in lynched blacks, gassed Jews, and now in aborted babies. How long are we going to permit such inhuman violence to continue? "
--Rev. A. J. P.; State College, PA
"I entered college last fall with a strong religious background and my opinion on abortion had fallen to just thinking it was not good for my own life. After really looking at these pictures, I realized that perhaps this opinion stemmed from the fact that I could not stand up for myself and these children of God on such a liberal campus. . . . I admire the strength of those who peacefully stood together for their beliefs and welcomed all concerns, complaints, and even opposing protest . . . . This message was powerful and I pray for your safety and strength. "
--M. E.; Penn State University, Student
"I write with deep gratitude to the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform for its tremendous courage and message in bringing this most important issue to light. The photos were presented in such a way to make all pay attention. During my day it became obvious that students of all kinds were affected by the photographs"
