Prof. Cole,
Your assignment: Visit the front lines of the next Cal protest (yourself!) to learn the difference between a smashed ornamental pot on the Chancellor's portico and the police-smashed fingers on a graduate student.
A must-read article on Chancellor Katehi:
UC Davis Chancellor Katehi’s past: police repression in Greece, FBI spying in the US, http://wsws.org/articles/2011/nov2011/kate-n28.shtml
From the article:
Katehi has spent the past week and a half defending herself against demands for her resignation, while making half-hearted attempts to distance herself from the police violence.
However, Katehi’s claims of innocence in the matter are belied by her past. She has played a major role in developing repressive measures against students protesting austerity measures and is a prime example of the growing nexus between corporate CEOs, academic administrators and the police-intelligence apparatus.
Katehi’s has been involved with police crackdowns in her home country of Greece, is one of 20 administrators involved in a national FBI network aimed at monitoring “anti-U.S.” activities on college campuses, and has overseen an administration-run campus infiltration program.

Thanks. Didn't realize I had messed it up. Too busy. It is fixed now.
