About 150 protesters peacefully left the main administration building at UC Davis shortly after 11 p.m. Tuesday after protest leaders and university officials reached an agreement.

There were no arrests.

Beginning at about 8 a.m., a handful of demonstrators quietly sat and studied in the lobby of Mrak. By about 3 p.m., their number had grown to about 200.

In a half-page written statement released late Tuesday night by university officials, the demonstrators agreed to immediately leave Mrak without incident and to respect the hours of operation of university facilities.

In turn, Janet Gong of Student Affairs made five written commitments to the demonstrators, most of which were related to the arrests last week of 52 who were protesting recent student fee hikes and declined to leave Mrak after numerous requests by campus officials. The five commitments are:

1. The University agrees to review the arrest of the young woman ("B.H.") immediately, irrespective of whether a formal complaint is filed with the Campus Police. The University also acknowledges that it maintains a formal complaint process and will also respond to any complaints that may be submitted.

2. The University has the right and responsibility to speak with District Attorney's office in this situation and will do so not later than Wednesday, November 25. The University agrees to take an affirmative position of advocacy with the District Attorney and to ask him to strongly consider his option of not filing charges.

3. Given the cooperative nature of the Thursday, November 19 event and in the spirit of continuing dialogue, the University will not pursue student disciplinary actions.

4. The University agrees to engage in further discussions regarding Cooperative Housing on the campus in a mutual desire to promote sustainable, affordable cooperative living facilities and opportunities on the campus, including any potential use of existing facilities for non-housing purposes.

5. The University agrees to enter into further discussions on all other demands with a representative group, as early as Monday, November 30.

Chancellor Linda Katehi is scheduled to meet with students to discuss a variety of their concerns from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 30, in the ARC ballroom.
