<p id="paragraph1">The U.C. regents meeting in <a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/topics?topic=San+Francisco" title="San Francisco" class="informTopicLink">San Francisco</a> got out of hand early Wednesday.</p>
<p id="paragraph2"><a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/topics?topic=NBC+Universal+Inc." title="NBC Universal Inc." class="informTopicLink">NBC</a> Bay Area's <a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/topics?topic=Christie+Smith" title="Christie Smith" class="informTopicLink">Christie Smith</a>
reports police used some kind of spray on a crowd of protesters just
after 9 a.m. Smith said this happened after protesters tried to get
into the meeting through barricades that had been set up specifically to
keep them out. At least a dozen protesters were arrested. Many of them
were literally dragged away by police. Smith said the scene was
extremely tense.</p>
<p id="paragraph3">The officer who sprayed the
crowd did it with a hose type object. It wasn't clear if it was pepper
spray or water or something else.</p>
<p id="paragraph4">Only people who had signed up
ahead of time to speak to the regents were allowed in to the meeting
and only if they had proper identification. They is apparently was
sparked the initial uproar Wednesday.</p>

<p id="paragraph5">Hundreds of people turned out
at UCSF Mission Bay campus before sunrise to make their voices heard.
Many were bused from campuses as far away as <a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/topics?topic=University+of+California-Los+Angeles" title="University of California-Los Angeles" class="informTopicLink">UCLA</a>.</p>
<p id="paragraph6">The issue that has things
riled up is an expected 8 percent fee hike for the 2011-12 academic
year. That would bring the average undergraduate cost to about $12,000 a
year. </p>
<p id="paragraph7">The trouble Wednesday was so
far kept outside the actual meeting. The other issue on the agenda is a
possible vote on changing retirement benefits. If approved, <a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/topics?topic=U.C." title="U.C." class="informTopicLink">UC</a>
workers would be eligible to receive 100 percent of their benefits only
after they reach age 65. Right now, the retirement age is 60.</p>
<p id="paragraph8">The students had planned a march at 11 a.m.</p>
