"If I had known about it earlier I would have told all my students to go," Rockwell said. "They could fill Sanders [Theatre]."
Student demonstrators at U.C. Berkeley and U.C. Riverside have demanded that university administrators resist following Prop. 209 guidelines, reduce student fees and rename a building at the Berkeley campus in honor of Mexican-American labor activist Cesar Chavez, according to U.C. Berkeley spokesperson Robert L. Sanders.
Police arrested 23 demonstrators still camped out in the clock tower early the next morning, Sanders said.
More than 900 star-struck fans packed Sanders Theatre to hear actor and celebrity heartthrob Mel Gibson speak, but many left dissatisfied after listening to the Australian's flippant remarks.
In addition to his talk at Sanders, Gibson spoke with more than 30 undergraduates yesterday morning and led a workshop with more than 100 students from Boston-area high schools and the Graduate School of Education in the early afternoon.
