Hi Elizabeth,

My name is Max Glick and I am an undergraduate student at UCSC. I am writing to inform you that your name will be included with press releases and flyers that will be posted throughout campus and the community tomorrow. You were quoted giving the following statement to the KSBW news crew
(www.theksbwchannel.com/education/4395006/detail.html):

"No, no, there were no batons, there were no Tasers. Someone said there was a Taser (gun) used. No, there was no force of that sort," UC Santa Cruz spokeswoman Elizabeth Irwin said.

I was personally batoned by a cop in my stomach as were several other students. We have pictures of bruises to prove it. Also, we were not locked down in the tent. We were peaceful bystanders who happened to be standing in the path of riot police. They did not ask us to move, they simply started attacking students with batons. We have documented these attacks with several photos and videos and everything will be online within the next 24 hours.

I would like to give you the chance to retract your statement before we go live with the press release and flyers at 3 pm tomorrow. In the
press release, we will be stating that your and the rest of the administration's lies concerning the events of Monday are absolutely reprehensible and that students will not allow this the University to try to shove things under the rug and pretend like this was a minor incident. What happened on Monday was absolutely inexcusable -
unnecessary force by the police inflicted on a group of students who were not a threat to others. We are also demanding an apology from the
administration and the UCSC police. I will take a failure to reply to this email as an indication that you are ok with us going public stating that you have lied to the media while representing the UCSC Administration.

Max Glick
