The article I’m referring to is here
Just six years ago, tuition at the University of California was $5357. Tuition is currently $12,192. According to current proposals, it will be $22,068 by 2015-2016. We have discussed this in my classes, and about one third of my students report that their families would likely have to pull them out of school at the new tuition. It is not a happy moment when the students look around the room and see who it is that will disappear from campus. These are young people who, like college students everywhere and at all times, form some of the deepest friendships they will have in their lives…..
….Perhaps the Chancellors of Davis and Berkeley have never seen this photo of people with linked arms. It is an iconic image of non-violent civil disobedience in this country….
…..peaceful civil disobedience in which sitting and linking arms was understood by citizens as a posture that indicates, in the clearest possible way available, protestors’ intent to be non-violent.
Just some excerpts from the article. I encourage you to read it for yourself. As for the rest of my followers I apologize if I am posting too much on this topic, but bear with me. I went to UC Davis and [still] live here so I am affected by this issue.

“Happiness is subjective, but without a doubt some college campuses make life a little sweeter for students. Newsweek ranks the 25 Happiest Schools in America.”
Davis makes the top ten! So proud. Love seeing everyone so happy and friendly up there! Nothing like a small college town!
