That money cannot buy everything was exactly the spirit of the 2005´s protest. The School of Architecture was turning to be more functional (what proof to be dysfunctional) and less of a visionary place. It was clear to all the protesting students and I that the existence of Cooper was a triumph over market economy, not everything can be measured by money and money cannot buy it all.
I agree with having free education and education being a human right but thinking about the numbers, thirty undergraduates selected per year, per school, one sees that Cooper Union wasn´t solving the problem of free education as much as positioning resistance. Cooper Union was about free spirits, about democracy and equality. Cooper Union was saying: rich cannot buy their way in here.
