The Student Forum, which will take place at Tempe campus on March 4th, will be occurring at the same time as students take action across the country. The problems of increasing tuition, decreasing accountability, and privatization are confronting students everywhere.
As Sun Devils, we will do our part to make sure that public education remains affordable, that all students have a say in the decision-making process, that the quality of our education isn’t compromised by corporate interests, and that learning remains the fundamental purpose of ASU.
The problem isn’t just financial. Racism, sexism, and economic exclusion remain embedded in our school’s institutions.
At what point will we say enough is enough?
Students in California and New York will be shutting down their campuses, bringing nationwide attention to these problems and the dire situation that higher learning is facing. What will you do?
