new school protest 19 december 2008

new school student occupation victory celebration 3:30 AM

from http://newschoolinexile.com/
After more than two weeks of concerted actions, students in the occupation were able to win significant victories in the ongoing struggle to improve the New School. Those concessions include an agreement not to press charges or impose academic punishments, the implementation of a Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) committee within the university, more autonomy and power for Student Senate to communicate with the student body, more representation on the Board of Trustees for students and faculty, and finally the creation of more student study space on campus. A full list of the final demands between the student negotiators and the administration will be posted here shortly! In solidarity. This struggle will continue. This is one more step. Onward.
