Photos: American College Students Celebrate Freedom Without Walls
Students at over 30 colleges and universities across the US marked the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall with a host of colorful events. Of course, the celebrations engaged the intellect with discussions, art, and expert lectures, but the students did not forget to have fun celebrating Germany's happiest hours either.
