(Bay City News) A group plans to establish an encampent at the University of California at Berkeley today.

The “Occupy Cal” group, made up of students, faculty, teachers and university workers, as well as community members, has planned two days of action today and Thursday.

Organizers say the action is in protest of a potential fee increase for UC students and cuts to all levels of public education.

Protests are also planned for the Nov. 16 UC Regents meeting at the University of California at San Francisco’s Mission Bay campus.
