Hundreds of protesters from the University of California system descended on San Diego’s Central Courthouse downtown on Monday to speak out against the arrests of two graduate students at UCSD and an alumnus.
The three were scheduled to be arraigned on Monday, but in a written statement issued the same day, the San Diego County District Attorney's office said the arraignment would not move forward because the case had not been submitted to its office for review.Sign up for NBC San Diego newsletters.
The protesters maintain that the school system isn't honoring the contracts and that they want 12-month appointments — so that graduate students earn an income over the summer break — and a minimum 20-hour work week. They allege that, instead of honoring the contract, the school is trying to discipline those who are speaking out.
"UC San Diego supports its community members' rights to voice their concerns lawfully. UC San Diego does not tolerate vandalism or other damage to university property."
