Directions ahead of time sounds so organzied! I think I mostly just got the address for the show and a phone number or two. Then we would try and call from a pay phone when we got to town and it wasn't long distance but a lot of times no one would answer. Remember liberated calling cards? lol

Well I mean when dad was 17 he was married with his first kid so China probably seemed like no big deal? He also wrecked 5 cars before he turned 17. So yeah it all made sense.

Pretty sure I went to go see The Dicks the night before the SATs and thus did not get adequate if any sleep?

Mine were awful but it didn't matter at all. I also don't support the existence of elite universities. College should be free and accessible to anyone who wants to learn.

I agree - but given that there are still laws I think definitions matter.

Yeah but since there is such a thing as an illegal protest - what makes it illegal? I think the legal definition matters as a way to subvert the looming threat of the decree and encourage resistance.

Is being against school policy what makes it illegal? I haven’t been closely following the Palestine solidarity student movement so I’m not sure exactly what has happened in the past year other than the continued leveraging of anti-Semitism” towards Pro-Palestine organizing. Is that a legal issue?

I know it’s dumb to try and be logical about these decrees but it seems to matter - for example if the institution DID permit a protest and that changed its legal status the decree would possibly have no real meaning? I’m uncertain.

cool you can email me if you still have my email and I'll send you the link

We are meeting 3/23 4pm pt virtually does that work
