Today right outside of Trinity College was a student protest against tuition being raised. RTE news figures that there were 20,000 students in total that came out to support the protest. I was standing at the corner of Dame street and Nassau Street and captured the above footage. I was thoroughly impressed with the shear numbers of students that marched, because for years in the United States tuition has been going up, and our students sit and moan about it but no one ever takes action and does anything. All it took here was one tuition increase to get the people its effecting up in arms. Well done Irish students for taking a stand!
