Retro New School Students Occupy Cafeteria

Written by David on December 19th, 2008

Does this kind of thing even work any more?  Did it ever work?

I understand how they feel, and it’s good that they care about anything at all, but I don’t see how this will help accomplish their objectives.

But maybe I’m just old and still bitter that the pre-Iraq war protests accomplished absolutely nothing.  In this country, in this age, those in power react to protest by digging in.  Yes, it’s still essential to voice your opinion and try to change what needs changing, but this retro shit ain’t gonna cut it.

    I’m sure the smell of pathchouli will permeate the cafeteria there for some time, and student diners will always wonder why Indian is on the menu every day.
