Remember the tree-sitters? The protestors who aren't reeling in the threats of budget cuts and Marines beating us to pulp? Well, their numbers are dwindling but their residences are still highly coveted.

Yesterday morning, an arborist was sent in by the university to dismantle some of the tree-settlements. The school has noted that many of the trees are no longer inhabited.

The arborist has reportedly removed many rope swings and uninhabited platforms. One of the platforms turned out to be a lavatory, from which a bucket of fecal matter fell and splattered on the ground.

The poo is in no way preventing the University from pursuing its construction of the athletic facility.
