We Saved the Che Cafe! New lease signed!

PRESS ADVISORY

On July 28, 20107 the UCSD administration signed the successor lease for the Che Café, Groundwork Books, Food Co-op, and General Store Co-op! The co-ops had all signed it during the prior week or so.

This ends the long fight of the Che Café Collective and supporters to reverse the June 13, 2014 termination of their lease and to defeat the administration's lawsuit to evict the Che.
