A crowd of protesters in Groningen with signs that say “I brought a tractor to show how angry we are” and a torn sign that says “onderwijs?” To signify the damage the budget cuts would do to education

Anderen zijn in de Harmonie bezig met het maken van protestborden en delen flyers uit.

En ook de derde dag van de estafettestaking in het Hoger Onderwijs, vandaag in Nijmegen, is een groot succes. Het rode vierkant van #WOinActie wappert aan de toren, en duizenden studenten, docenten, wetenschappers en sympathisanten protesteren tegen de aangekondigde bezuinigingen. #DoeHetNiet
