Article on CSM about the spread of OWS to college campuses. Interesting walk-out at Harvard on one of professors who served in the Bush administration.

Also, the pepper spray incident at UC davis. Riot gear for peaceful protests? I realize there are homeless people inter mingling with the protestors and many of them have issues they are dealing with. Doubt there are many if any homeless protesting with the students on college campuses. What sort of balance should the authorities provide in this case? Operate at the point of the lowest common denominator?
That appears to be what they are doing. Hope they keep it up.

and another regarding the opposition to OWS. Welcome or unwelcome representatives of the one percent?
