Chicago City Colleges students, faculty, community and labor leaders declared "We say NO to the 'reinvention' of the City Colleges of Chicago to suit LaSalle Street. We say NO to the privatization of our public schools and colleges, the dismantling of public sector unions, worker layoffs, and cuts to programs and services for students and communities."
