This is a wonderful account of what took place and who was involved during the Living Wage Campaign occupation in 2001. I'm recommending that there be mention of the Cambridge living wage ordinance's limitation of applicability to only city employees and city contractors, and also something to indicate that at the time, only the small remaining group of directly-employed security guards were unionized. Some of the students who participated have now returned for their 25th reunion.

I'm only now realizing it's the 15th anniversary of Occupy Harvard!
