UCSC police believe the string of incidents occurred Wednesday shortly after midnight. No injuries were reported.
Few students are present because the campus began its winter break Saturday. Some faculty and most staff are still working on campus in advance of the holiday closure.
UCSC spokesman Jim Burns said there were no immediate suspects. However, he said graffiti messages expressed opposition to the prison system, law enforcement and campus growth.
During the weekend, leaders of a former tree-sit demonstration opposed to UCSC's Long-Range Development Plan said they would continue their "resistance" but did not say what they intended to do. Two people closely associated with the 13-month protest -- which ended Saturday when the university felled nearly 60 trees to make way for a biomedical research center -- did not immediately return calls seeking comment about the vandalism."
