It doesn't quite make sense to me that these things should be done: why on earth, if we are paying tens of thousands of dollars to study at these institutions, would we then waste our precious classtime? Or, even worse, force our peers to waste their precious classtime? By all means, protest--sit in the Administrative Building after hours to get media hits, march through campus with signs and chants--but don't, for god's sake, advocate hypocrisy. I believe 100% in your cause--how could I not? But I dislike what you do to try to get your point across.
I agree.
I'm kind of glad I got out of college before the budget cuts started really hurting my scholarships and stuff. My brother hasn't decided where he's going to go, though.
yeah thank god I'm graduating now...only to enter a dead job market hahha. Fml...wow is your brother graduating HS already?? I remember back when he was like a baby HP (:
Thats incredible that that is happening in the US. I didn't know. Its weird lots of budget cuts are happening to my university here too and tuition is rising in Canada, but somehow I gather the sense that it is not nearly as much as it is in the States. Tuition to the University I go to is around $5000. So, over four years it's $20,000. From what I hear, at a few schools in the U.S. its like $20,000 alone for a year?

I still think of him as a little kid! He still has a baby-ish face...even though he has to shave now

worth watching all the way through...it's a video of our campus tv station covering the events that went down yesterday.
And yeah, it's 20k for a year in a PUBLIC school...if you go somewhere like Harvard or USC it's around 40k or more...
