    Last September, UC Davis agreed to spend roughly $1 million to compensate current and former students who became victims in the Nov. 2011 incident, dishing out $30,000 settlements apiece to 21 plaintiffs, and another $6,666 to 15 others that stepped up later

I guess being disapproved of for pepper spraying people sitting harmlessly on the ground is about 26% more stressful than being pepper sprayed for sitting harmlessly on the ground.
