The group, whose goal is "educating Ball State and the community about injustice and the violation of human rights," will begin the walk at noon.
They will start at the L.A. Pittenger Student Center toward Bracken Library, ending with a protest.

There are 166 prisoners in the Guantanamo Bay prison, about 50 of which were declared "too dangerous to release" by a government task force, according to The Associated Press. 

"Guantanamo Bay must be closed to restore any moral legitimacy to our government," Amnesty International said in a press release Monday.
