I support the protesting and the incredible organization of the Cal Poly Humboldt students. That is a great display of what organization against the police is. We are always stronger in numbers, together especially. The protest in solidarity of the Palestines and for the divestment and the cutting of ties from Israel universities. As scholars, and any students, we must support our efforts in divesting, these weapon companies run our schools, especially it all my STEM majors. Push them out, and demand the liberation of these occupied countries.

Hi so i usually don’t make posts like this but i wanted to bring attention to an important issue. if you didn’t know humboldt state university recently became a cal poly. This week they sent out an email letting the student body/parents know that they accepted over 1000 freshman. this is way more students than they can handle and because of this they are forcing all of the current students off campus. this means a few things 1. they have rented out hotels (including a motel 6) to have students stay there and they will have to be shuttled back and forth to campus and 2. students will have to find off campus housing. The problem with the second solution is that there simply is not enough housing in the towns surrounding the campus. This means that many students will either have to drop out or become homeless. The university has had many problems that it has not addressed but this had been the tipping point. These problems include but are not limited to: no covid housing(if you get covid you are forced to stay in your dorm with many other people and there is no way to get food without relying on friends), lack of disability resources (there is no disability housing and the disability shuttles are often late/unreliable), and a lack of communication between administration and the student body. The acceptance rate is too high for the new influx of people applying to the university and there is not enough space/resources for everyone. Students have been organizing and pushing back against this new policy. There have been efforts towards community outreach and media attention. There is a protest tomorrow and it is expected that most of the students will show up to send this message home. if you would like to help and support struggling students I have a few resources for you.

Here is a petition for the cause

Here is an article if you would like more information

This is super cool!

Reminds me of visiting the Solar Decathlon on the National Mall back in 2009. I should post photos of that some time.

Shelby Daniele, a talented and accomplished track and field star and recent graduate of Cal Poly, passed away on Wednesday. Just months prior, she had proudly celebrated earning her master's degree, a testament to her dedication and hard work. Rest in peace, Shelby. Forever in our hearts. #shelbydaniele #shelby #daniele #calpoly #track #trackandfield #calpolyuniversity #california

I find this interesting, esp. the origin of the purpose of the giant sink. More here.

Tumblr hates links but this needs to get out. California decided to penalize universities if they don’t meet application goals but there’s not enough housing in all of Humboldt county to meet the amount of students and locals this would displace. Cal Poly Humboldt already has one of the highest student homelessness rates in the state. The fact that they thought housing hundreds of students on a barge in a tsunami zone was a good idea-

Buildings are easier to defend than outdoor camps AND they can be more disruptive. For anyone ready to escalate for Gaza, check out this re-issue of a text that has been used in previous movements.

April 22, 2024 - Student protesters for Palestine defend their occupation of the Siemens hall building at Cal Poly Humboldt from riot police sent in by university administrators.

According to the @humboldtforpalestine Instagram account, which posted a statement at around 7 p.m., protesters are demanding that the university “disclose all holdings and collaborations with the zionist entity,” an academic boycott of Israeli universities, proactive pardons for the protesters and, finally, an immediate ceasefire and end to the occupation of Palestine.
