"Why are you here today?"
"Because we cannot have a genocidal foreign policy in a democracy. These young people are going to have to be the ones to pay the price for these horrible decisions."
Solidarity, Dr. Tiffany Willoughby-Herard.
"These police officers out here today, that's thousands of student scholarships. Thousands of students who would have been able to go to school, buy books, have housing. But instead, our Chancellor, who is a very cruel man, decided to send thousands of dollars of state funding into the trash."
And this is why if there is a stand-up strike by the GSIs at Davis it is likely to be ignored, but if there is one by the GSIs at Irvine it will be largely respected by a lot of the faculty. The proper university approach is to just ignore or meet and nod politely with the protesters.
