Additionally, there are many books that are only available in the Anthropology library and the many other libraries that are now closed every Saturday, and the taking over of this particular library is to be seen as a general statement about how the money UC Berkeley does have, despite the cuts, is used or not used (as Professor Paul Rabinow said, for example, in the opening teach-in at this event today: do you wonder about why the building project at Boalt nor that of the athletic facility next to the stadium have not been halted in the midst of our "budget crisis?"). So come out and support our mission to make it clear that the UC budget should be used to fund the education of UC students!! We'll be here till 4pm tomorrow!
