After those first days, the sit-in was a “peaceful but pungent experience,” Wood said.
A PSLM member confronted Guerrero and her colleague, she recalls, about signing a statement supporting the sit-in. When Guerrero’s colleague said that it wasn’t her place to sign anything, the PSLM member became angry at them.
“That’s what the Nazis said at Nuremberg,” she recalls him saying.
Guerrero says she was tripped by a student as she walked down the main hallway of Mass. Hall.
Sukthankar and Marouf disagree with her perception of the incident. They testified that the student was actually trying to retract his leg and that the tripping was unintentional.
All four law students said they didn’t see any incidents of protesters putting flyers in the face of staff members, an experience which Guerrero claimed happened to her.
The three assistants who testified claimed that the protesters chanted “Shame on you” at them in the first days of the sit-in.
