Emory Hates the Poor, Kicks the Homeless Out of the Door!
Emory has entered into conspiracy to close the homeless shelter at Peachtree and Pine in downtown Atlanta. The Enterprise wishes to kick the more than 500 people that sleep there every night to the streets. And when an unsheltered community member wishes to seek shelter from the rain on our very campus, the reaction is much the same. The police officers, working on behalf of the Enterprise, attempted to send the destitute woman back into the cold night.

The Emory Police Work to Uphold the Interests of the Enterprise, NOT the Safety of the Students!
Last May, at the request of the Emory administration, seven students were arrested on the quad for a non-violent demonstration about unethical labor practices on campus. Last night, one student was arrested for no reason at all by Emory Police, who have been empowered by that same administration. How can the administration allow the police to arrest students at their own university?

WATCH OUT: EMORY POLICE MAY ARREST YOU WITHOUT A REASON AT ANY TIME!
Emory Student Arrested
in
Woodruff Library
A philosophy graduate student was arrested last night in Emory University’s Woodruff Library. Emory police officers accosted a homeless woman seeking shelter from the rain in the library lobby around 11 pm. The student, a friend of the woman, began speaking with her, attempting to prevent her from getting in trouble with the police. An officer asked the student for his Emory ID. Before the student even realized what was going on, he was grabbed and placed in handcuffs. The police used a brutal amount of force on the student and the officers paid no attention to his cries of pain.
EVEN ON THEIR OWN CAMPUS, STUDENTS ARE UNDER ATTACK!
STAND UP, FIGHT BACK!
