In this brilliant prank, around 20 students masquerading as job applicants disrupted a JP Morgan recruiting session. One student in a suit stood up and shouted "Mic Check" and the other Occupiers repeated after him. Then he led the Occupiers in a recitation of this script:

"Princeton's motto is:
In the nation's service and service of all nations
JP Morgan-Chase, your actions violate our motto
Your predatory lending practices helped crash our economy
We've bailed out your executives' bonuses
You've evicted struggling homeowners while taking their tax money
You support mountaintop removal mining in Appalachia
which destroys our ecological future
In light of these actions,
we protest the campus culture
that whitewashes the crooked dealings of Wall Street
as a prestigious career path.
We are here today
as a voice for the 99%
shut out by a system that punishes them
just for being born without privilege.
What we need is not a university for the 1%,
but a university "In the Nation's Service,
and in the Service of All Nations."
