The University of Kentucky student group United Students Against Sweatshops had an interfaith candlelight vigil Monday for workers who have died in the garment industry. The vigil, on UK's main lawn, was intended to encourage President Capilouto to affiliate UK with an independent watchdog group called the Workers Rights Consortium. Photo by Mark Ashley
