For the rest of the semester, New School SDS will be leading a campaign to reclaim student space. The meager three rooms on the ground floor of 55 West 13th Street are all that suffices as 'our' space, and yet even then we are routinely kicked out. The New School administration has promised to keep that area open for us at all times, and used their commitment to do so to justify a $3000 tuition hike. Yet, as usual, VP Murtha and others have showed themselves to be not as good as their word - students trying to study, amongst them Free Press reporters, were kicked out and forced to go to NYU's Bobst to complete the insane amounts of work we have.
It's our space. We're going to make it so. We're planning on setting up our computers and books, starting Thursday, and provide snacks, hugs and emotional support to our fellow students. So, starting at 10pm on Thursday and continuing till the end of Finals, stop by! We'll be hanging out, and we'll have food!
Also, we're working on ideas for next year, so come let us know what you think we should work on!!
