Student Protest

Students, and others, have been protesting loudly about California budget cuts in education. One of the more far-reaching protests was at San Francisco State, as Inside Higher Ed reports:

The protests have been described as largely being about the major program cuts and tuition increases at the California State University System, but a list of demands on the protesters Web site also called for the end to wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and Gaza; a shift in university control from administrators to students, faculty members and staff; the shutdown of prisons; and the establishment of a single payer health-care system.
