The Alliance for Peaceful Action, also known on campus as APA,  believes in finding peaceful resolutions and stands against any all forms of violence, whether it be physical, economic, or psychological. This group strongly believes in the importance of activism and dissention against those who create violence, including our own government. It is open to all Knox students.

Some of the events and activities of the Alliance for Peaceful Action organization include:

• Fair Trade Fair: This is a week of events promoting fair trade and making it available throughout the campus.  
• Protests in cities like Washington DC and Chicago .
• Women Peacemakers Week, to honor female activists.   

APA meetings are held every week in the Human Rights Center.
