DN! System-Wide Strike (1) at University of California

Why Are We Destroying Public Education? University of California Students and Staff Prepare for System-Wide Strike to Protest Cuts

The governing body of the University of California system, the Board of Regents, is preparing to vote on a major tuition hike for both undergraduate and graduate students. Undergraduate tuition would rise an average 32 percent, while some graduate schools would begin charging thousands of dollars for programs that are currently tuition-free. The Regents are meeting Thursday at UCLA, where students from across the state are converging for what organizers have dubbed a Crisis Fest, including mass protests, civil disobedience and teach-ins.

Whatever happens, keep composed calm. Cops are punks. They will try to antagonize you or make it appear you are the aggressor. Strikes are the best way to hurt them, from there attack the illegal immigration issue in CA. Lets nip this in the bud all at once.

The rewards outweigh the risks and if nothing is done. We cannot continue the mistakes of our parents! Keep the good and cut the fat! You can not allow illegals to keep taking free education/health/money/food stamps/job while paying no taxes and expect not to pay higher fees/taxes everywhere. Good Luck!
