Feel upset about EC10 but don’t know how to show your discontent?
Want to get involved in the Occupy Movement?
Join our STUDENT WALK-OUT of EC10 on Wednesday, November 2nd at 12:15!
Gregory Mankiw will be lecturing, and this a great opportunity to show discontent with the style/material/content of the class!
We will be heading over to the higher ed march after the walk-out and anyone is welcome.
So help show solidarity with the Occupy movement by walking out of EC10 at EXACTLY 12:15.
This is later than the general walk-out, but we are making an exception because it is such a symbolic class/instructor.
Let’s show Mankiw that his lack of teaching, extremely high textbook cost, and biased instruction matter to the students!
