Protesters face off with UC Davis campus police

Student protesters just faced off with UC Davis campus police on the Quad. At approximately 3:30 p.m., police officers marched to the protesters. After protesters refused to leave, police arrested at 10 individuals, nine of which were students. Officers also pepper-sprayed students in the face who were sitting down and linking arms.
Over 200 protesters were on the Quad during the police action. The police left the Quad around 5 p.m. and protesters dispersed.

  1. Where is The Aggie’s proof that nine of the ten are students?
    Have heard other news organizations quoting a ‘local paper’
    as the source of that reporting and assume the responsibility
    is yours.

  2. UC donors are the leverage that this movement needs. What if we circulated a petition that UC donors could sign? “I, _______________, pledge not to donate to the UC development fund unless if tuition is capped at 2005 levels, adjusted for inflation (national CPI).”
