Who gives up a subsidized dorm room or apartment to live in a tent outside? Shit's crazy...I had a roommate in college that occupied our quad once, it was called he got drunk and passed out on the beach volleyball court and we left him there...he woke up when it started raining that night.
In all seriousness, I actually think these guys have it figured out though. I mean, I wish you didn't identify with these other fringe lunatics and their whiny, social handout, why us, agendas, but all in all your message isn't that bad, not one mention of debt forgiveness, which I like. Yea your school may be vastly over priced (aren't you now the number 1 most expensive school in the nation? And you don't even graduate with an Ivy League diploma, dudes, you're getting hosed), but no one forced you to sign acceptance and take that loan.
I agree that the rising prices are an issue and they need to stop, but I firmly believe in settling all of your own personal debts, none of this debt forgiveness horseshit if you whine loud enough, so don't let me down NEU...you might be the only reasonable voice in this whole Occupy thing.
I also love that this only went 48 hours. Phenomenal planning, I mean you guys should probably be running one of the real occupy protests, dead serious. They'd probably have a home headquarters in a hall or office somewhere and some actual political clout, instead of just being a bunch of transients showering and eating in homeless shelters and churches. No need or place for indeffinite stand offs, you want to get your point across, set a schedule of planned, pointed protests and demonstrations, none of this communal tent living horseshit.
