During my evening class, it came out that Chancellor Loftin is stepping down effective at the end of the calendar year. The heads keep rolling, interested to see who's next.
Another interesting development tonight is that the protesters, who are fighting for more rights, were preventing journalists from photographing and documenting today's events, thereby revoking their right to free speech. A bunch of news outlets have reported on this (like here and here). Somewhat counterintuitive you would think.
Next, an anonymous Wordpress post circulated tonight among students. It was an open letter to Jonathan Butler and Concerned Students 1950. Again, I'm refraining from commenting, but I am linking it here for you to read.
Finally, here's something you won't be able to hear anywhere else. There was a mandatory athletics meeting this meeting for ALL athletes about today's events. And wouldn't you know it, only 2 football players showed up. Two of seventy or eighty who protested. I'll let you come to your own conclusions about that too.
That's all the updates I have for tonight. Stay tuned as there will certainly be more news to come.
