Especially with this crowd in power.

@Class sizes are growing, and Instead of investing in faculty, UC invested in management and administration. Now, faculty are feeling the effects. www.sacbee.com/news/local/e...
@ubiquity75.xyzReposted by @01a10037-74a6-7f41-a498-dba5862c12d7The UCLA Faculty Senate Legislative reps forced an emergency meeting, through procedural means, of that body after the unprecedented chancellorial decree ending early childcare on our campus without consultation with any campus parents or others. This is in the wake of a child SA scandal.

@ubiquity75.xyzReposted by @01a10037-74a6-7f41-a498-dba5862c12d7We have been laying off staff. Berkeley is hiring 72 tenure-line faculty this year. UCLA is hiring 8. The chancellor has announced two new vice-chancellor direct reports for himself. We are told there is no money. Class sizes have been doubled.
