addendum
this is pretty great, and reminds me of some of the lighter (read, colder) moments from the NYU strike.
3:30 p.m. One writer suggests that we walk counter-clockwise. A minor fracas occurs between those who think this is a great idea and those who believe it might undo all our work for the past two and a half hours.
Thanks for flagging this! This morning I'm having fun pulling apart and re-problematizing one of Troy Patterson's observations: "A representative of the Internationalist Club of the City University of New York ardently clutched a sheet of fluorescent poster board. On one side, the sign pledged solidarity with the screenwriters; on the reverse, it advocated an end to imperialist wars and the release of Mumia Abu-Jamal; in his other hand, the student held a shopping bag from Zabar's."
