Dear Associated Students:

The AS Council at Ocean is preparing for STATEWIDE ACTION at the state
capitol in Sacramento, the MARCH IN MARCH on March 14th, 2011.  All students
are invited to join in marching to the state capitol to protect STUDENTS'
RIGHTS and HIGHER EDUCATION.  PARTICIPATE in active resistance to the
impending budget cuts that could CHANGE the face of community colleges and
our own City College of San Francisco.

With Governor Brown's proposed budget, students face fee raises up to an
additional $10 per unit in the Fall semester 2011, cuts to student services,
loss of classes, and more stringent Financial aid eligibility requirements.
WE must present our UNITED front in student activism!  All CCSF campus
Associated Student Councils are collaborating to EMPOWER STUDENTS, with the
support of Chancellor Don Griffin, the CCSF administration, faculty, and
classified staff.

What YOU CAN do:

March in Sacramento on March 14th in UNITY with CALIFORNIA community
colleges!
Attend council meetings and statewide senate conferences!
Rally and attend teach-ins at CCSF on March 2nd for equity, access, and the
right to higher education!
Contact your local and state legislators!
Hold on to your DREAMS and keep HOPE alive for the students of CITY COLLEGE!


GET on the BUS and GET INVOLVED!
SIGN UP at www.ccsf.edu/mim...it only takes 30 seconds!

The MARCH IN MARCH PLANNING TEAM will meet MONDAYS at 3:30 PM in the Student
Union Conference Room 208 at Ocean Campus.  Please spread the word and
invite students.  Volunteers welcome!
Join us in the effort to LET THE STUDENTS' VOICES BE HEARD across the
state!
