I was watching the "Russia Today" news network (sorry, I don't trust US media). They were showing rioting at NYU, with students asking for more affordable tuition and asking where exactly their tuition money goes. Anyone got anything more on this?
There's a YouTube video here:
YouTube - NYU College Students Riot Brarricading Themselves inside Cafeteria & Protest Outside Fight Police
And some coverage from Russia Today Online:
And some advice from Pravda here.

The New York University alumnus graduated with honours two years ago. Unemployed and living with his parents, the 28-year-old is just one many who can't find a job.

Armed with Masters' degrees and crippling tuition loans, tens of thousands of the twenty-somethings are struggling to crack the cold, ugly, unwelcoming US job market.
