Week 4 Blog
After reading “A Tale of Two Campuses: Berkeley and Davis respond to Occupy movements” I was shocked at the negligence of the UC campuses to the cries of students about tuition increases. What should have been done was not done but instead the occupy movements continued. As a student attending a renowned university, I know the struggles of paying tuition and definitely can relate to many of my peers who come from low-income families. I understand that there are limits to everything we can do to voice our grievances. However, I think the UC system could have done a better job negotiating with the students instead of using violent methods to hold them down. We all deserve a better education and the UC system should do everything they can to ensure students receive that rather than ignoring their concerns.
