Palette: A poem
Gray. The color of the fog and mist over the water, clouding my view of everything I have ever known. I fear that one day I will forget. I don’t want to forget.

Late changes in financial aid threaten student health insurance
It was a week before tuition was due last year, and I was waiting for my scholarships to disburse so that I could be certain I wouldn’t be dropped from my classes. I’d received a financial aid office email every few days telling me that my awards had been adjusted.

How UC Berkeley students can navigate health care insurance changes
The unfortunate reality is that SHIP claims — aka use and cost to the plan — have increased annually for the last three years. The result of those rising claim costs is that SHIP premiums have to increase to account for them. This reality was evident throughout all the health insurance bids the campus received.

The changes to SHIP coverage in the fall may be inevitable — so the campus must inform students about possible disruptions in coverage, rather than releasing dismissive press releases. If UC Berkeley truly values the health and wellbeing of every student, it must actively support students through the large and frustrating changes that next year will bring.
