Yesterday I posted about this week’s balloon drop in the Berkeley lecture halls, and speculated that it might have been the first student protest of the 2010-11 academic year on an American campus.

Nope.

As Berkeley’s Ricardo Gomez points out over at the Student Activism facebook page, students at Cal State Monterey Bay staged a banner drop at a back-to-campus barbecue last Sunday, backing it up with some lit distribution.

Congratulations (and apologies) to the students of CSUMB!
