"Thesis 0.1: The University is a Machine in the Network of Capitalism & Empire. Does anyone still pretend that earning a degree is anything other than job training? Can professors still hide that their knowledge is commodified? Is it not clear that the university is the lap-dog of the state?
Thesis 0.2: There is No Crisis. It is all Business as Usual. We cry for the loss of a dream that never was. The university was never ours. After shaking off the unessential it will rise from the grave merely mutated and continue to serve its master.
Thesis 0.3: The University Cannot be Saved. Stop occupying dead space. Our demands merely echo through the empty corridors. There is nothing here for us to take-back or transform, except their administration of an infertile garden. [It’s like taking woodshop without having anything to give your parents at the end of the semester]
Thesis 0.4: Defect to the Invisible University! Abandon the university! Join the university! We are building a new community in the shell of the old: an universitas magistrorum et scholarium, a community of teachers and scholars."
