Boy, you are laying it so thick.
Let me paraphrase what I was told once, "You haven't accomplished anything until you have a degree in one hand and an offer letter in the other."
These are youngsters looking to build a career and if some of them are idealistic, kudos to them. And the comment from U of M is rather after the fact isn't it?
Staging the walkout and I am sure that a lot of them had their parents there, they stole the day and had a party after the party comparing their middle fingers.
