4. it depends
A lot of things are planned for the 29th

the 31st is the day of direct action and civil disobedience. You can read about some of it on a31.org

It is likely that those two days will have A LOT going on. be careful, especially if you choose to report on the 31st, the NYPD is likely to be on edge and they will be targeting independent media along with protesters.

you can also see a full schedule of what is being planned at these two websites that have aggregated the information in calendar format:

http://www.counterconvention.org/phpicalendar/month.php

Hope this helped.

Which university are you at?
