706: Scrub In!
Janet Napolitano, University of California Tuition Protests
University of California President Janet Napolitano apologized after an open microphone caught her referring to student protesters' displays as "crap" during a regents' meeting. The students were protesting a proposed 5% annual tuition increase over five years, with some stripping to their underwear to highlight "student debt." Napolitano claimed the comment was directed at the nature of the protest rather than the students themselves.
