Students at Cal State University, Fullerton marched all over campus in protest of the recent budget cuts, along with faculty furlough days, layoffs, and tuition increases. They expressed their anger at the system and the government by chanting and voicing their grievances through speeches and signs.
What is going on in California...... wow that is too much violence for me.

I do not think protesting is sufficient to meet the change that students wish to see. Rather don't participate. Shake the foundation of this system and don't enroll! Let them know that the education of one student is not negotiable!

Well it's a start . They are protesting against the gentrification in higher education. Besides they are there to learn, not quite ready to offer solutions. I will admit. These kids are very smart for questioning the State and the Cal State System for not working for them. However; I can offer a solution. Get rid of Arnold. He's an actor with no political and economic background. His only job should be making films, not barriers to the goals of thousands of aspiring young minds.

I think that it's good they are voicing their concerns, but I don't see them offering a solution to the problem.

What is the solution to the California budget crisis? You should get someone to look at all the funds and tell them to highlight some proposed cuts rather than education. I am not convinced with these protest unless there is a solution to accompany it, otherwise it just seems like the protest advocate more debt to California tax payers so students don't have to pay for the fee increases (which still come under the tuition for many universities across the nation, tho cost of living kills in OC).
