SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Over 1,000 students and faculty from across the state were brought together Wednesday morning to protest California Gov. Jer- ry Brown’s proposed budget for CSU schools. Many students arrived at the state cap- ital Tuesday evening, taking long bus rides and spending the night at The Ta- ble at Central United Methodist Church, sleeping on the floor. A silent march began outside of the Governor’s Mansion at 6:30 a.m., with tape over protesters mouths in an effort to remain in compliance with the city’s noise ordinance. The protesters marched back and forth silently, encouraging passing drivers to honk and cheer. Students held picket signs that read, “Fund the Dream” and “Free the CSU.” Griselda Aguirre, a junior at Cal State Fullerton and first-generation college student, said she realized how important it is to stay informed after going to an immigration fair for her family members. “It made me realize there’s so much work to do, which is good, because I want to be (utilized).

CAMPUS MUSIC Droid: ODEX1 collects dust CONTINUED FROM 1

“I think it’s important (to preserve ODEX 1) because the campus has a history and that history connects it to the local community … It’s important that there’s some memory of the interest in robotics in the past,” said Kevin Lambert, CSUF associate liberal studies professor who has an em- phasis on the history and philoso- phy of science. Lambert said robotics and the use of robots are especially common in the modern world. “We’re surrounded by these objects all the time and we take them for granted,” Lambert said.
