On Tuesday, the occupation of UC Berkeley's anthropology library entered its fifth day, with students demanding that it be preserved.
Of all the public universities in the country, Cal is the only one with a library dedicated entirely to the study of anthropology. The question is: are they dedicated to keeping it open?
The Anthropology Library is currently under fire. The students said Chancellor Carol Christ intends to shut the facility down to save more than $400,000 annually. And it's not the first time it's been threatened. In 2012, members of the Occupy Cal movement staged a sleep-in at the library until the administration agreed to preserve it. To end the protest, the university signed an agreement with students to keep the library open and staffed. No end date was mentioned in that agreement.
"That means this library is fundamentally about people," he said,"about the history of people, their relationships, people to one another, the violent histories that people have suffered."
