03/06/2008 Richmond Times-Dispatch (Richmond, VA) -- " Opponents of a proposed coal-fired power plant have some reinforcements -- about 75 college students who arrived to help fight the coal industry in Southwest Virginia.

The students are on an alternative spring break to learn about coal, the region and activism on issues including mountaintop removal strip mining and the power plant Dominion Virginia Power is proposing to build in Wise County, Va."
