Save Our Majors Rally at Stevens Point

Hundreds of students and faculty members at the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point held a rally -- including a brief sit-in -- to protest plans to eliminate 13 majors in the humanities and social sciences, The Stevens Point Journal reported. Students at the Save Our Majors rally said that the plan was shortsighted and was drawn up without appropriate campus input. The university has said that the plan is a necessary response to worsening financial conditions.
