In 1969, the students of Amsterdam raised their voices as had never been heard before. \u00c2\u00a02010 was the start of renewed student activism. It started at Dam Square in Amsterdam, at the heart of the city, on March 2010. It was followed by a procession through the city. When the crowd walked by the Maagdenhuis, someone screamed: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s occupy the Maagdenhuis!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Due to sudden enormous police presence, it did not happen.
