Student protesters wake up this morning in front of a chained-up Campbell Hall at the UCLA campus in Westwood campus. Those who spent the night there had posters and signs that said, “Don’t take our education away” and “Don’t privatize, democratize.” Dozens of other students spent the night camped out in tents on top of Parking Structure 4.
