No, I am in too much pain to attend much of the occupation. I was glad to see the next day the occupiers were repainting graffiti ( that was not done by the 99% ) and help with the cleanup. U.C. Berkeley was next, however, with police brutality for no reason at all. It was disheartening to see the stream of events on my computer. Faculty, alumni, and some city council members are asking the administration for an apology and an assurance that nothing like that will ever happen again. More songs are being written and sung here, and the mood is hopeful that real change will take place.
