Tent State 2008 - April 19-26

Check this out.



Tent State University started in 2003 on the campus of Rutgers with only 38 tents and by 2006 had grown to over 150. This year it is scheduled for April 19-26th.

I also found myself wondering if Penn would allow or even encourage something like this. What do you think?

I would think that as a student paying tuition at a time when our nations universities are being underfunded (i'm not super up to speed on Penn's higher ed funding, but I'm a student at Rutgers and I know NJ higher ed is going to hell) you have a right to organize this sort of event on your campus. The support of Rutgers varies from year to year, but generally as we are advocating for Higher Ed funding the administration tolerates us. We love to see new Tent States taking on the issues of our time, I think you should do it!
