University Of Calif. Faculty, Students To Walk Out

More than 1,000 faculty members and students at the University of California schools are planning to walk out Thursday in protest against an increase in tuition and furloughs. Joshua Clover, an associate professor of English at the University of California, Davis, says the moves instituted by the university system's administrators mean that students are getting less attention from their professors despite having to pay more for their education.

I'm pretty proud of the UC system making a statement against tuition and furloughs. ASU has dealt with tuition hikes, furloughs AND a surcharge. Who knows if this will actually change anything but at least they're putting their foot down.
