Free Education!

About 300 students are blocking business as usual at the Philosophical Faculty at the Zagreb University today, with a simple demand: that higher education be free of charge. Education is a civil/human right, not privilege or luxury. Today was the first day of the symbolic takeover, and it's a part of the world-wide campaign. Spurious Bastard hears that the students were making a lot of noise and that they are very well organized, vocal, and articulate. Go, students!

I'll post Zagreb news as I get them. What do you hear/see is happening in other places? Nothing at UIC that I can notice :-(.
