Pepper Spray Apology

One of the Chancellors of UC Davis, Linda Katehi, apologized to a crowd of students, faculty and parents for the handling of a situation last Friday. The incident was that campus police officers were pepper spraying individuals who were protesting as a part of the 'Occupy' movement, which protests things such as corporate greed. The protesters were blocking a sidewalk by sitting down. The police officers sprayed the protesters to make them move out of the way. A spokesperson for the college said that although Katehi wanted the protesters moved, but not in a forceful way like this was. Despite the apology, many want Katehi to resign.
