BERKELEY -- Three of the Memorial Stadium tree-sitters left their perches today and Tuesday night, leaving just four protesters making a stand against UC's plans to build an athletic training center in the grove, UC Berkeley officials said.
The three protesters, who have not been identified, climbed down from the trees late Tuesday night, campus spokesman Dan Mogulof said. One of them was arrested by campus police while the other two climbed up a different tree, he said.
After talking to police this morning, the two came down. All three have been charged with trespassing and violating a court order to abandon the protest in the grove, Mogulof said.
The protesters' reasons for leaving the 19-month-old tree-sit were not immediately available. . . .

I bet these twerps are upper middle class college students. They'll probably just get in the saab and head over to Starbucks. Then go home and sit in their air conditioned houses.
