UCLA students rally against cuts, hikes

_
Hundreds of students and staff at
the University of California, Los Ange-
les rallied in support of public educa-
tion in California during the National
Day of Action on March 4, according
to an article in the Daily Bruin, the
University of California, Los Angeles'
campus newspaper.
According to the article, the activ-
ists - who chanted "Education should
be free - no cuts, no fees" - protested
education budget cuts as well as inci-
dents of racial discrimination that
have allegedly occurred at multiple
University of California campuses.
UCLA spokesman Phil Hampton
said in the article that university offi-
ials have accepted a list of student
demands but that no changes could be
promised.
"I think that, like students, UCLA
campus leaders are concerned about
the rising cost of education," Hampton
said in the article. "We are committed
... to finding cost savings and preserv-
ing the high quality of education."

MSU BANS USE OF LIVE ANIMALS
IN VET SCHOOL TRAINING
Michigan State University will stop
using live animals when training stu-
dents in its College of Veterinary Medi-
cine to perform surgeries, The State
News reported in an article published on
March 4.
MSU officials announced the ban last
week and said the school will start using
animal cadavers in the fall, according to
the article.
Currently, the college buys animals
that are bred for scientific purposes. Dur-
ing surgeries, the animals, mostly dogs,
are placed under anesthesia and then
euthanized.
Bryden Stanley, an assistant professor
of small animal clinical practices at MSU,
told the State News that the school has
been looking into ways to teach surgeries
that don't involve live animals for a few
years. He said the cadavers will provide
the same learning experience as live ani-
mals.
"It will be skill-based, and they will
have practiced so manytimes, when they
do come to the live animal, they will be
better prepared," Stanley said in the
article.
TEXAS UNIVERSITY GROUP
TRADESPORNFORBIBLES
Atheist Agenda, a student group at
the University of Texas at San Antonio,
led a drive to exchange pornography for
religious texts, according to a March 2
article in the Paisano Online.
In its "Smut for Smut" campaign on
March 1, the group exchanged copies of
Playboy and Penthouse magazines for
Bibles, Torahs and Korans.
According to the article, a group of
Christian students protesting the cam-
paign deterred students from participat-
ing in the exchange.
UTSA sophomore Cecilia Tapia was
among the protesters who carried signs
that said "Jesus Saves" and "Jesus loves
the Atheist Agenda."
"I'm here to make sure they know the
word of God," Tapia said in the article.
