Unrest at UC Davis

I have to admit that I barely got any work done today.  Most of my time was spent thinking about the recent actions at UC Davis (horrible on the part of police and administrators and amazing on the part of faculty and students).  The day began with an open meeting in our the Physics Department chair's office (attended by faculty and students)  followed by a campus wide rally that involved thousands of students, faculty and community members. I am impressed by the outstanding behavior of my fellow students and comforted by how much the faculty care for the students and are willing to stand side-by-side with them.
