"As the University Senate’s review of our campus Rules of Conduct commences, students, faculty, and administrative workers must make their voices heard in advocacy of free speech and assembly. This issue isn’t partisan, nor should it be polarizing: It is paramount to the future of our university. If we don’t organize now, we might lose the right to organize at all."

"Student activists have power: We helped swing an election that weekend. As students downed coffee, a campaign volunteer in his mid-50s came up to me to make sure everyone had gotten breakfast.

I guess you're all proving me wrong.”"
