This morning, a group of UMASS-Boston students occupied their university.
Following in the footsteps of the physical occupations at Zucotti, Dewey, and other public spaces around the world, these students have asserted their presence in order to “provide a forum where students, staff, faculty, and members of the community can come to a consensus on what concrete changes would provide quality, accessible education in Boston that is available to everyone in the 99%.”
One of our Occupy Boston livestreamers is on the scene. Watch the feed live:

And be sure to watch the great video they created to introduce their occupation:
This is our first test of Cover It Live. We’re hoping to make it easier to participate remotely in general assemblies. Let us know what you think!
