RETIRED TEACHERS MARCH--Hundreds of retired teachers occupy the lobby of the State Teachers Retirement System building, in Columbus, Ohio, on Friday, Aug. 15, 2003. The former teachers were protesting recent irregularities with the System, including a $550,000 buyout/settlement with former director Herb Dyer, a loss of $12 billion in the stock market and $94.2 million for a new headquarters building. A small number were admitted to the board of directors meeting. (Jack Kustron/Photoj.com)
