Note the 'tried to do anything' above. Whether or not underfunding rallies
work, they most certainly are attempts to 'do something'. That's the only point
I was trying to make.
In any case, the University is a victim of underfunding, not a cause. Striking
against the University doesn't seem to be a good way to tackle problems
whose root causes are underfunding.
