And the times are a-changing, well except at my alma matter
So I went looking for the occupy group at my alma matter, I mean I know that you need to talk to people in the field to get a true sense of what is going on. I also realize not all occupies will be well, physical occupations 24\7. Well, I also know the history of the jewel of the CSU system, so in a way it does not shock me. I mean, while students were doing all kinds of horrors, my alma matter remained quiet back in the day. I can report it remains quiet. I could NOT, for the life of me, find them. No serious free speech area... goose egg, in front of the administration, even bigger of a goose egg. Other usual suspects on campus, nope...

Oh well, occupations will not happen all the time or everywhere, but my alma matter was more quiet than a church today... and neither staff or students, or chiefly cops, knew a damn thing about Occupy activity. Such is life,

But it makes me wonder, how many of our occupies are virtual occupies, and why am I posting this? Well, it is part of the conversation.

I guess that is the way it is.. I just report folks, I just report at this point.

2. Two colleges, it's in the school paper
not San Diego State. In fact, san diego state. they have no clue. The Daily Aztec reports that the walk out will be at CSU Dominquez Hill and CSU East Bay... It was approved by faculty.

Yup I got the copy of the paper. There was a demonstration against those cuts yesterday. That was the most I could get out of people.

3. Sorry, alma mater (as in Stabat Mater dolorosa.)
My own old school may wake up sometime this century.
