   The main disruption is that students have to walk around the encampment (maybe 5 extra minutes) to go from one side to the other. The main path that is closed is actually closed by campus security, not protestors.

   So not exactly the riot we are told makes the students' lives impossible.

   I took this photo just outside the encampment. Very peaceful, students chilling, living their student lives.

     Just came back from the UCLA campus. A few quick thoughts:

     1. The encampment is not very disruptive. It occupies a tiny part of UCLA's massive campus. Though it's been there for days, I saw a lot of students discovering it for the first time and asking "what's going on?"
