graffiti

With many classes taking place in public spaces such as San Francisco’s Clarion Alley, Graffiti Camp for Girls is much more than an instructional course on how to spray-paint.

While graffiti has become ingrained into mainstream culture and legitimized itself as an art form, its history and significance deserve recognition.

To youths in the 20th century, graffiti represented their identities, from the names they used to the artwork that helped them identify with one another.

Though many praise UC Berkeley, not a single smile is to be seen on its campus. The Clog decided to investigate how dreamy UC Berkeley actually is.

Phrases written in chalk such as “Illegals, ICE is coming” and “They're called Dreamers for a reason” were spotted on Sproul Plaza late Monday night.

On the south side of campus, 30 instances of vandalism — including slashed vehicle tires and spray-painted messages — were reported to the Berkeley Police Department June 28, according to a BPD statement released on July 3.

People who don't go to UC Berkeley sometimes just can't understand the weird things we deal with in our daily life here. To help shed light on the subject, we at the Clog put together five of the most common #justberkeleythings we all experience.

UC Berkeley has seen a spate of chalk graffiti over the past few weeks, from “Straight Liberation Movement” to supportive messages for LGBT people and pro-animal rights slogans.
