March 1 Walk Out

Education budget cuts have been affecting the UC system. Remember that this is a State University, therefore with public funding. Currently an out-of-state student will pay, in is freshman year, around 30k USD for fees and tuition. That is before he can apply to reduced tuition for in-state students (2nd year and above for US nationals, and after the Qualifying exam for international graduate students such as myself). The students have demonstrated their disagreement towards the UC Regents Board policies of making education more inaccessible due to increased tuition. This happened as I was going to lunch last Thursday, here is a couple of snapshots I got. You can see the Geisel library in the back.
