Students, community members and activists have been fighting to ban military recruiters from Santa Monica College. We have written letters to the administration, and helped to organize a walk-out against the war and against military recruiters. Even with over 600 signatures from students alone, the administration has done nothing to limit the military's access to the school.
Tom Donner, President of Santa Monica College wrote us a letter washing his hands of any responsibility to the indignation of students, faculty and Santa Monica community to military recruitment. He is also apparently a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger and is hoping to have this enemy of workers, women, and education speak at the 2005 graduation. All this while our tax dollars and tuition keep Tom Donner employed! We are calling on the people of Santa Monica to protest in front of President Tom Donner's office! Remind him that either he does what the students want or we don't want him!
Meet Thursday April 28th @1pm at the corner of Pico and Stewart in Santa Monica (in front of the 99 Cent Store ) to walk to Donner's office.
