Full Video: 39 Arrested with Occupy Cal in Forceful Crackdown on Student Protest at UC Berkeley

This week the Occupy movement drew thousands of California college students to protests on at least 10 campuses, including UC Irvine, UCLA and UC Berkeley, where police forcibly removed students and arrested 39 people. The University of California system faces some of the steepest budget cuts and tuition hikes in the nation. Tuition and fees could increase by 81 percent over the next four years. This fall, students saw tuition hikes just a few weeks before their classes began.
