Students and community members spoke Monday in protest of campus plans to build housing on People’s Park.

With the COVID-19 pandemic throwing the UC Berkeley community into a virtual setting last spring, campus administrators continue to work to stay ahead of an unpredictable curve.

Professors serve as mirrors for our students and their humanity. This is an awesome power that, by its commission or omission, can change a student’s life.

Anti-Asian hate crimes have risen significantly during the coronavirus pandemic, with reporting database Stop AAPI Hate receiving almost 3,000 accounts of hate crimes since last spring.

The problem lies in an unrealistic timeline when even the amount of vaccines allocated to the UC system is ambiguous.

Administration and the Academic Senate have an obligation to step in and truly begin to re-imagine what online education looks like at UC Berkeley.

California must push the UC system to institute these reforms, among others — public higher education cannot become a wholly pay-to-play system.

Campus cannot act for students if it does not know where issues lie, but students cannot relay issues if they don’t know where or how to do it.

We must protect all that I-House represents and hold it accountable when it fails to live up to its own mission and expectations.

I’ve never viewed my indecisiveness as a positive trait, but it’s given me countless opportunities, one of them journalism.
