Nearly 7,000 classrooms collapsed in the earthquake last week, killing thousands of students and parents are trying to pressure the local government into investigating alleged local corruption, greed and mismanagement. Tens of thousands of people remain buried in collapsed buildings from the 7.9 earthquake which has killed well over 51,000. State media reported that 10 million people have been directly affected by the quake with 5 million homeless. (Paula Bronstein, Getty Images)
