I just emailed this to everyone, but in case you missed it ---

I forgot to talk about this in class on Wednesday, but a few students reminded me that the "The March in March" is on Monday March 5. This is an opportunity for you to voice your disapproval of continued cuts to the community college system (and public education in general) in California. Buses will take students from City College to Sacramento to protest the budget situation. This is unfortunately turning into a very dire situation and community colleges seem to bare the brunt of the economic burden. I encourage you to participate if you are at all able. You can sign up on the City College website: http://www.ccsf.edu/~mim/index.php.

I am not canceling class, but I will excuse anyone who goes and brings back a proof of attendance and you will receive credit for whatever we do in class that day. I will also count this as your extra credit "good deed" for exam 2 -- so there's double incentive!
