KUCI Subversity: March 4, 2010 Rally at UC Irvine

Published: March 8, 2010, 5 p.m.

b'On March 4, 2010, UC Irvine erupted in a day of lively protest actions as students, faculty and unionized staff joined their comrades across the state and the nation in protesting the privatization of education. At UCI a spirited group of speakers rallied hundreds at a rally at the flagpole, followed by crowds of protesters marching across campus, into Langson Library, and the Gateway Commons by mid afternoon, ending in a smaller crowd gathered on the lawn outside Aldrich Hall, the scene of a sit-in the previous week. On the March 8, 2010 edition of Subversity, a KUCI public affairs program, we aired speeches from the March 4 rally at UC Irvine, as a document of UCI activism reaching a new scale.'
