DESCRIPTION:Teach the Forest\n \nIt’s time to organize and we need YOUR 
 help!\n\nSwift action is required!\n \nOn June 6th, the Local Area 
 Formation Commission (LAFCO) will decide the fate of the UCSC upper campus 
 and the Long Range Development Plan (LRDP).  Currently, the University is 
 planning to develop 240 acres of upper campus, which would destroy valued 
 redwood forests and nature trails, stress an already taxed water supply, 
 and threaten federally endangered species. \n \nLAFCO is positioned to 
 force the UCSC administration to re-think its plan and to demand that the 
 University comply with environmental guidelines. But we need your help to 
 make sure that LAFCO takes this action!\n \nWhat you can do:\n1: Join our 
 effort to “Teach the Forest” and come to our meeting on Tuesday May 
 29th at 7 PM in Social Sciences 1 Room 414. At this meeting we will provide 
 you with a presentation to deliver in your classes, petitions for gathering 
 signatures, and packets to train others to Teach the Forest. Also, you will 
 have a chance to buy your own "SAVE UPPER CAMPUS" t-shirt (we think the 
 cost will be approximately $10 each). Bring 3 friends! AND SPREAD THE WORD! 
 \n\n2: Join us at the LAFCO meeting on June 6th at 10 AM - 701 Ocean Street 
 Room 525 in the County Governmental Center and tell LAFCO that you want 
 them to approve the March 7th substitute motion put forward by John 
 Leopold. Make it clear that the UCSC administration does not represent the 
 voice of our University!\n\n3: IF YOU CAN'T COME TO THE MEETING, print the 
 petition and Teach the Forest Instructions from our website and gather 
 signatures from anyone affiliated with the campus! Drop your finished 
 petitions in the dropbox outside Social Sciences Room 413 by June 5th at 
 midnight. Please note and inform people that these petitions are different 
 from the de-salination ones that are going around. These petitions are 
 meant to show the overwhelming desire of campus affiliates to re-consider 
 destructive development in upper campus Natural Reserves.\n\n4: Forward 
 this email to friends!\n\n\n Visit our website:
