I went to the university library today. Its first time open since March 2020.

Afterwards, I crossed campus to stop at my bank.

Going back, I see that the Christians at the entrance to Sproul Plaza were talking about how life is uncertain and we all need to find Jesus.

The plaza was packed with tables promoting all sorts of student organizations and causes.

PETA had dumped red dye into Ludwig’s fountain, along with some artfully arranged red-dyed stuffed animals and a sign demanding that UC get out of factory farming. (?)

Another group had hung a giant banner across Sather Gate, “UC LAND GRAB VALUES PROFITS OVER PEOPLE!” (about the big U’s plan to build more dorms, I think).

Yeah, baby, we’re back!
