While we at Reclaim UC remain skeptical about Adbusters' anti-consumerist, electoral pressure politics, the financial services industry is at the forefront of today's privatization of California public education - setting university priorities and profiting massively off of student debt.
We encourage everyone to participate in the upcoming coordinated September 17th occupations of Wall Street in NY and the financial district in SF.

Occupy Financial District: Peaceful Occupation on California St, San Francisco
San Francisco, California – September 17th, 2011 – Plans for a peaceful occupation in San Francisco are under way after the #occupywallstreet campaign has gone viral.
Activists and citizens on the West Coast who cannot venture to New York City are gathering to display a sister movement in San Francisco to protest against fiscal irresponsibility, corporatocracy, and general dissent with the United States leadership. Occupy Financial District SF is partnering with the California chapter of US Day of Rage to combine numbers and media attention. The peaceful rally is set to take place on September 17th, 2011, at 555 California Street in San Francisco at 2 p.m.
