Did you blog yesterday’s session?
I plan to blog yesterday’s session tonight. I had an assignment to work on last night. Thanks for asking.
Hey Tess,
I’m an undergrad from UCSC trying to save this school I’ve gotten myself into. I’m really impressed with everything you’ve collected here! Its an amazing resource I wish I’d always had throughout the year. I’m starting a site of my own pretty soon too!
So if you don’t mind me asking, what are your goals in all this? I’m looking for people to help me in my quest to change the way our UC spends money and make it transparent. If you’re down for involvement or even just schooling me a bit I’d appreciate it. Could we chat or talk by phone sometime?
Send my best to the hunger strikers if you know them and keep up the good work!

I’ve been meaning to stay in touch with you! You are a bloody genius; your website is as awesome as your perspective is on this whole matter. What are you doing next Fall? I’m going back to UCSC, not as a student, but a revolutionary.. and I need to stay in touch with smart people if I want to get to these fat cats. You have the knowledge and talent to really stand a chance at influencing these guys to change their minds. Please get in touch with me!
