Occupy My School: No Tuition Hikes! Students Stand Up!

The corporate state of California, ever ready to seize its ideological and commercial hour during a recession, has a chokehold on California's public universities. With its tax-coddled plutocracy and a nod to further corporatization, the state government has taken the lid off tuition increases big time.

Students of the University of California at Berkeley may pay a proposed $23,000 in tuition by the 2015-2016 school year, up from $11,160 this year (2011) that in turn is up from $2,716 in the academic year 2001-2002. In short, tuition for resident undergraduates has more than quadrupled in ten years.

Spraying graffiti is a tactic of the 99%?

Nope, it's the actions of the 1%. That 1% in this case being disenfranchised wanna-be anarchists.

Thanks for wasting a couple thousand dollars for nothing!

Tuition spiral or wasting money on cleaning up vandalism. Same thing. Both BS.

As corporations are stealing trillions of dollars from every single person, people are still bickering over a little spray paint meant to highlight this corruption. Stop talking about vandalism and start talking about the REAL problems or stfu.

"stfu?" Really? Suppressing free speech is a tactic of the 1%. Choosing to ignore constructive criticism is one thing, but telling people to shut up because you don't like what you read, right or wrong, is another.
