    Who’s Sproul Hall?   Everyone’s Sproul Hall.  You had a few days, you got to make a point.  I appreciate that you didn’t cause a  shitstorm when you left.

    Now figure out how to do something more than just camping.  Try hitting the Legislature who refuses to fund Cal, rather than the people charged with spending the little money allocated.  And stop inviting Oakland to sleep with you — they have germs you don’t want.
