(AJC) — Georgia college students and other activists have organized a rally Thursday to protest what they describe as attacks on public education.
The march, organized by Georgia Students for Public Higher Education, is to “protest crippling budget cuts, tuition and fee hikes, teacher furloughs and layoffs and other attacks on public education at all levels,” organizers said.
The rally is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. in Woodruff Park in downtown Atlanta. The group will later march to the Capitol.
