I am a student at Seattle Central Community College. I didn't care either way about this whole "Occupy Seattle" thing. I do now. Walking into the bathroom and finding people sleeping on the floor, drug baggies on the steps near the campsite, smelling marijuana virtually every day, being asked if I have money, cigs, etc., EVERY DAY is not okay. Watching a couple of people from the encampment get into a fight and pound each other's head on the concrete is not okay. There are so many people hanging out on the campus who do not go here. There is a torn-up couch with graffiti on the lawn, bales of hay piled up, garbage all over the place. This is NOT Tent City! Maybe in the beginning these people had the right intentions. Now, not so much. The way I have been treated is not at all "peaceful." So, so, so many of my classmates feel the same way and also feel that it doesn't matter what they say. Nobody cares. See, no one asked me, a student, if it was okay. I came to school and there they were. My schoolmates have been asked numerous times if they want to buy drugs. Sorry, but this is out of control. This isn't fair to the students, teachers, and staff. You aren't hurting the "Big Guys," you're hurting us students.
