Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Javier Cevallos reads the Picketing Code. Black and Latino enrollment in higher education has declined at UMass as a result of the dismantling of Affirmative Action, in a struggle that saw the takeover of the Goodell Building in a week-long occupation. Labor and student struggles have rocked UMass as administrators and state legislators have delivered cuts in services, hikes in fees, a failure to replace faculty, and a wholesale gutting of the mission of the public university to the corporate gods of private profit. 2001 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/ color sound opensource_movies oelberg@lycos.com 2005-03-27 20:49:46 skamunist brian oelberg 0 00:06:41 2005-03-28 20:44:54 skamunist 1 0 umass amherst students;students against classist racist education alana;labor geo union members scarce alana students of color united direct action MovingImage opensource_newsvideo
