Fee Hike Resistance at Stanislaus State University in Turlock Ca

Save CSU Stanislaus from unaffordable & uncompromisable, yet cowardice intellectual masterbation!

Wednesday, December 9, 2009

Time:
11:00am - 10:00pm

Location:
CSU Stanislaus Turlock Ca,

*Rally (share personal stories): 11 AM-noon in the Quad

*March across campus: noon-1 PM

*March on the administration building (MSR): starts at 1 PM

*Everyone is welcome: students, faculty, staff, local residents, parents, local business owners.


The protest is to bring attention to the following:

-Student fees have gone up 30% while we have lost 21% of our faculty and several of our classes

-President Shirvani (of Stan. State) has decided to remove winter term despite overwhelming student and faculty support to keep it

-President Shirvani and his administration have been spreading misinformation to the community and media about how professors are paid and the supposed benefits of getting rid of winter term

-In a nationally published article in the 'Chronicle of Higher Education' President Shirvani suggested that education is a "privilege and not a right"

-President Shirvani has not been willing to work with students and faculty and created an atmosphere of intimidation and oppression
