Occupy Olympia carries on, as of this writing, as one of the longest-standing occupations in the country.

See the statement of support from the the Coordinating Committee of the UFE.

UFE members have been contributing to the Occupy movement in several ways.  Many of us have attended General Assemblies and camped overnight.  We’ve attended rallies, and UFE coordinators have spoken at the major rallies at the capitol.  Some members have cooked meals and delivered them.  We are donating $500 to Occupy Olympia and Occupy Tacoma.

Several UFE members and Evergreen faculty have written articles related to the Occupy movement.  Here are links to those that we know about:

Alan Nasser (Emeritus, Political Economy) has a series of articles at Counterpunch. many of which relate to core Occupy themes.  See, for example,  How the Oligarchy Gets Politicized (Nov 15)
