M219 is looking for artists, musicians, writers, and tech-saavy students

Hey all,

Movement February 19 is looking for talented students to help spread the message of reforming tuition for the benefit of the entire NYU student body.

If you have striking photos, illustrative talent, a literary streak, or even just a video camera, we would love you to help join us in letting the other students, our families, our friends, the city of New York, and the administration know how passionately we feel about a fair deal.

If you have any interest, e-mail M219 @ movement219@gmail.com

If you know someone with artistic talents please refer them to our cause.
Remember, we're all in this together.

Our education is not a commodity


We want only two things:

The tuition to our school frozen.

And a say in how that money is spent.

We aren't radicals, we aren't anarchists, or bolsheviks, or wobblies, or weathermen. We are your best friends, your sons, your daughters, your neighbors, and your colleagues.

We are doing this for our parents, because we know that even love doesn't pay the bills.

We are doing this for our friends, because no one else will.

We are doing this for ourselves, because we are human beings and refuse to be seen as dollar signs.

Most of all, we are doing this for you, because in the end we are all in this together.

Tell us what you think.
