That said, an upcoming three-day political huddle, dubbed "Occupy the Truth: Whistleblowers Conference," piqued my interest. Think of it as an advocate/activist/info-gathering fest, and more. It unravels Feb. 17-19 at UC Berkeley and it could prove to...

We are delighted by the appointment of Professor David Graves as the first Lam Research Distinguished Chair at UC Berkeley
At a moment's notice, the November 9th protest at UC Berkeley could have turned even more violent than it did, much like the Occupy protests in neighboring Oakland. Please understand that by no means are we interested in making excuses. We are only hoping that you will understand and consider the frustr...
The UC Berkeley Police Officers' Association supports a full investigation of the events that took place on November 9th, as well as a full review of University policing policies
Summer bridge really broke us in to what to expect at Cal Berkeley. They jam-packed 16 weeks of school into like six weeks, so we pretty much had a paper due every two days
The Bee needs to take a tougher line ... The videos clearly show both the UC Davis and police at UC Berkeley brutally attacked peaceful student and faculty protesters. This is what a police state looks like.
It's very timely with student protests at UC Davis and UC Berkeley, and the Occupy movement ... Despite the controversy that it caused at the time, looking back it was the right thing to do for civic responsibility.
I sincerely apologize for the events of November 9 at UC Berkeley and express my sympathies to any of you who suffered an injury during these protests. As chancellor, I take full responsibility for these events and will do my very best to ensure that this does not happen again.
Berkeley cannot be a great university at the In the next few years, nonwhite undergraduates grew from 27 to 51 percent. The 1996 passage of Proposition 209 banned state public institutions from considering race, gender or ethnicity for admission, but Heyman is credited with setting a course for change a...

I deplore the violence authorized on November 9 at UC Berkeley and on November 18 at UC Davis against the bodies of students, faculty, and staff engaged in non-violent protest and the exercise of their right to free speech and assembly
My big meet this summer was nationals at Stanford, so I checked it out, and I also took an unofficial visit to Cal Berkeley, but it’s just so far from home
We are sick and tired of UC Berkeley students engaged in nonviolent protest being pulverized and having batons shoved into their ribs by police. What gives the police the right to use this type of police brutality?
Given the recent use of excessive force by police against Occupy protestors at UC Berkeley and elsewhere, the Chancellor must have anticipated that, by authorizing police action, she was effectively authorizing their use of excessive force against peaceful UCD student protestors. The Chancellor's role i...
To say, we're a nonviolent movement. Well, what does that mean? As we saw the other day with Occupy Cal, the chancellor of UC Berkeley said that linking arms was a form of violent protest.
