She was a senior at Evergreen  State College in Olympia but was not enrolled this quarter, the school  said.      Since January, she had been working with the Palestinian-led  International Solidarity Movement to protest Israeli actions in the  occupied territories, said Huwaida Arraf, co-founder of the group.      Corrie had recently appeared in a televised mock trial in Gaza in which  President Bush was accused of war crimes for his alleged support of  Israel's actions in Gaza.      "This morning, when she was killed, she was attempting to prevent the  Israeli military from destroying Palestinian civilian homes," Arraf  said.      "She was raising her hands and yelling at the bulldozer driver to stop,"  Arraf said. "The bulldozer driver paid no attention. ... He buried  Rachel with dirt, which ended up, obviously, knocking her down. Then he  ran over her, and then reversed and ran over her again."      Other witnesses, however, reported that Corrie had scaled a pile of dirt  but then lost her footing and fell backward behind it, out of sight of  the bulldozer operator. The bulldozer continued moving forward, covering  Corrie with dirt and then crushing her.      It was not clear whether the bulldozer operator could hear protesters'  yells over the sound of the machine.      A member of the solidarity group, who identified herself as Alice from  London, said she and Corrie had sat for about three hours in front of  houses belonging to their friends. The driver of the bulldozer must have  seen them, she said, but drove over Corrie anyway.      She emerged from under the bulldozer saying, "My back is broken, my back  is broken," Alice told CNN.      Tom Dale, who said he was about 10 yards from Corrie, said she was in  plain view and was wearing an orange jacket. As the bulldozer lifted a  pile of earth, it moved forward and caught Corrie under its blade, he  said.
