If the $500 million cut already made to the university earlier this spring were to double to $1 billion under an all-cuts budget, Yudof said the 10-campus system would be put on a path that could lead to a midyear tuition increase next January, employee layoffs, program closures throughout the university and — ultimately — a doubling of tuition to $20,000 a year. Yudof’s testimony Friday marked the first time he has publicly de- tailed what a $1 billion cut to the UC could look like. Gov. Jerry Brown had predicted in April that tuition could rise to $20,000 or $25,000 under an all-cuts plan, and Yudof told the committee that he had looked at tuition projections until he was “blue in the face” and agreed that Brown’s prediction is “not far off.” “The thing we fear the most is an all-cuts budget,” Yudof told the Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review, which brought its hearing to the offices of Microsoft in Moun- tain View to hear the testimony of education officials and Silicon Val- ley business leaders. During his testimony, Yudof — who opened his remarks by char- acterizing the UC system’s rela- tionship with the state as a “bad romance,” in reference to the hit by pop star Lady Gaga — said the system is prepared to handle the initial $500 million cut. At UC Berkeley, Executive Vice Chancel- lor and Provost George Breslauer has ordered $17.5 million to be cut from campus academic units and will tap into half of the campus’s $60 million central reserves to absorb its share of the $500 mil- lion systemwide cut. In total, UC Berkeley is expected to bear be- tween $70 and $80 million worth of cuts while UCLA will absorb around $96 million. But Yudof told the committee that if additional cuts come once the new fiscal year begins on July 1, the university will have little time to plan to absorb them and will most likely resort to mean “geometrical” increases in tuition and more pro- gram cuts. “We are not flexible in the middle of the academic year ... all things are not possible because we have made commitments to our students, our staff, our faculty,” he said, speak- ing in a sober tone. “It took over a hundred years to build these great institutions, but they can be de- stroyed.” Yudof was joined at the hearing by several Silicon Valley business leaders, who all gave credit to the state’s public universities for pro- ducing the human capital that tech startups rely on for success, a rare pairing of public and private inter- ests. “We are at a point of no return,” said Kim Polese, a tech entrepre- neur and member of Tech Net, a Silicon Valley lobby group. “Your choices will carry enormous im- pacts for years to come, and as you weigh those choices, I urge you not to make further cuts to UC and higher education. The impact of further cuts would be devastating to California’s economic vitality and to current and future genera- tions.” Polese, a UC Berkeley graduate, told the committee that large corpo- rations like Genentech, Qualcomm and Amyris were all founded by UC graduates, and without California’s universities, the state’s economic future is at great risk.

Senator Rachel Horning took the floor at the ASUC Senate meeting last Wednes- day night, they knew their battle was a lost cause. The two had co-authored a bill that sought to require more transparency from student political parties in ASUC elections, but by the time it finally made it to the senate for official consideration at the senate’s last meeting of the se- mester, it was clear the bill would fail. “We’re not here to attack the party system — we’re here to standardize the way elections work,” Horning said at the meeting. “It’s in everyone’s best interest.” If passed, the bill would have placed a $500 limit on party spend- ing and would also require parties to fund their campaigns through publicly available CalLink accounts — which are financed through the ASUC and normally only used for ASUC-sponsored student groups — in order to openly disclose where their funds come from. The bill was tabled three times by the senate’s Standing Committee on Constitu- tional and Procedural Review prior to being voted down after finally coming before the entire senate. The bill cites Federal Election Campaign laws that require public disclosure of campaign funds as prece- dence, though it states that such laws “need not be fully emulated, but rather serves as proof that this idea is histori- cally grounded and therefore warrants thoughtful and objective analysis in its implementation in the ASUC.” When the bill was first introduced in early April, Salahi and Horning had high hopes that it would pass. But the bill was met with contin- ued skepticism throughout the pro- cess from both the Student Action and CalSERVE parties — the domi- nant student political forces in the senate. “This bill ... is not going to funda- mentally alter the way the elections process works,” Salahi said. “But this would be the first check of many that need to be instituted to at least com- bat or inhibit the growth of the two- party system.” The topic of party spending in ASUC elections is not directly addressed in the ASUC Constitution and Bylaws, though individuals are limited to $200 for senate campaigns and $1,000 for executive campaigns. For Salahi and Horning, who are not a part of either major party, an unlimited amount of spending by parties creates inequity in the elections process. But several senators were con- cerned about the exact definition of party spending. The bill defined party spending as “any transaction of money made by a party, party signatory, or member of a party, for campaign materials that bear the party name and likeness, not including materials that explicitly sup- port a senate or executive candidate.” Still, senators from both parties did not feel this definition was perfectly clear, with some saying that expendi- tures on items such as t-shirts, which are worn throughout the year and not necessarily entirely for campaign pur- poses, might not fit into this definition and might cost more than $500. Senators and party officials also said the bill had too many loopholes. Student Action Senator and com- mittee member Michael Bloch, who had voiced concerns about the bill since it first entered committee, said he does not believe it is the role of the ASUC to force parties, which he said he views the same as any other student group, to “be a part of the ASUC.” “There were so many problems — it would be tough to come up with a bill that would pass,” Bloch said. “They had all these high-minded goals, and I think the goals were great, but they couldn’t come up with any realistic way to actually implement them.” Student Action Party Chair Shah- riyar Bolandian said in an email that candidates for the party spend money on picket signs, literature for their cam- paigns and “other campaign materials.” “Student Action candidates do not pay to run for office,” Bolandian said in the email. “Student Action is not a an elections spending reform bill, proposed by independent senator waseem salahi and sQUelCH! senator rachel Horning, was recently rejected by the senate.

Yudof disapproves of all-cuts budget

StAtE BuDgEtASuC

By Javier Panzar | Senior [email protected]

UC President Mark Yudof had a simple message to deliver Friday morning when he testified before the state senate’s budget commit-tee: If the legislature opts for an all-cuts budget to fill its remain-ing $15.4 billion deficit, “all bets are off ” at the University of Cali-fornia.

If the $500 million cut already made to the university earlier this spring were to double to $1 billion under an all-cuts budget, Yudof said the 10-campus system would be put on a path that could lead to a midyear tuition increase next January, employee layoffs, program closures throughout the university and — ultimately — a doubling of tuition to $20,000 a year.

Yudof ’s testimony Friday marked the first time he has publicly de-tailed what a $1 billion cut to the UC could look like. Gov. Jerry Brown had predicted in April that tuition could rise to $20,000 or $25,000 under an all-cuts plan, and Yudof told the committee that he had looked at tuition projections until he was “blue in the face” and agreed that Brown’s prediction is “not far off.”

“The thing we fear the most is an all-cuts budget,” Yudof told the Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review, which brought its hearing to the offices of Microsoft in Moun-tain View to hear the testimony of education officials and Silicon Val-ley business leaders.

During his testimony, Yudof — who opened his remarks by char-acterizing the UC system’s rela-tionship with the state as a “bad romance,” in reference to the hit by pop star Lady Gaga — said the system is prepared to handle the initial $500 million cut. At UC Berkeley, Executive Vice Chancel-lor and Provost George Breslauer has ordered $17.5 million to be cut from campus academic units and will tap into half of the campus’s $60 million central reserves to absorb its share of the $500 mil-lion systemwide cut. In total, UC Berkeley is expected to bear be-tween $70 and $80 million worth of cuts while UCLA will absorb around $96 million.

But Yudof told the committee that if additional cuts come once the new fiscal year begins on July 1, the university will have little time to plan to absorb them and will most likely resort to mean “geometrical” increases in tuition and more pro-gram cuts.

“We are not flexible in the middle of the academic year ... all things are

not possible because we have made commitments to our students, our staff, our faculty,” he said, speak-ing in a sober tone. “It took over a hundred years to build these great institutions, but they can be de-stroyed.”

Yudof was joined at the hearing by several Silicon Valley business leaders, who all gave credit to the state’s public universities for pro-ducing the human capital that tech startups rely on for success, a rare pairing of public and private inter-ests.

“We are at a point of no return,” said Kim Polese, a tech entrepre-neur and member of Tech Net, a Silicon Valley lobby group. “Your choices will carry enormous im-pacts for years to come, and as you weigh those choices, I urge you not to make further cuts to UC and higher education.

Senate votes against spending reform billBy J.D. Morris | [email protected]

When Independent Senator Wa-seem Salahi and SQUELCH! Senator Rachel Horning took the floor at the ASUC Senate meeting last Wednes-day night, they knew their battle was a lost cause.

The two had co-authored a bill that sought to require more transparency from student political parties in ASUC elections, but by the time it finally made it to the senate for official consideration at the senate’s last meeting of the se-mester, it was clear the bill would fail.

“We’re not here to attack the party system — we’re here to standardize the way elections work,” Horning said at the meeting. “It’s in everyone’s best interest.”

If passed, the bill would have placed a $500 limit on party spend-ing and would also require parties to fund their campaigns through publicly available CalLink accounts — which are financed through the ASUC and normally only used for ASUC-sponsored student groups — in order to openly disclose where their funds come from. The bill was tabled three times by the senate’s Standing Committee on Constitu-tional and Procedural Review prior to being voted down after finally coming before the entire senate.

“This bill ... is not going to funda-mentally alter the way the elections process works,” Salahi said. “But this

OFF THE BEAT

Fist pumps and first loves

Annie [email protected]

Screw double rainbows, Rebecca Black and Greg Jennings’ Madden performance. The

greatest Youtube video of all time is only five days old, and already it’s racked up a couple million hits.

“High five for first kiss” is a home video of sorts. Two little kids sit side-by-side on the playground before the little girl, Bowie, leans over and kisses her friend Elliott on the cheek.

And what ensues will make even the biggest commitment-phobic play-er’s heart melt into a gooey puddle on the floor.

Bowie hugs Elliott. Elliott kisses Bowie’s shoulder in response. She leans in before pulling away with a giggle and a fervent shake of her head. A few seconds later, Bowie grabs Elliott and firmly plants one on him. Girl’s got moxie.

Afterward, Elliott is basically one fist pump away from the frat life. He nods like a champ, shouts and blurts out, “We kissed on the lips! Woo-hoo!” The two lovebirds high five and share another quick peck before being scolded by an off-camera parent.

Call me a hopeless romantic, but I think this is just about the cutest manifestation of love I have ever seen. Maybe on par with Sam in “Love Actually” sprinting madly through the airport to chase after the girl he loves.

And this is when it hits me: some-times it takes a child to make us see how easy love can be. I bet everyone remembers his or her first primary-school pucker. In the spirit of full dis-closure, mine was behind a tree in kindergarten during a class-wide game of tag (even then I was a huge fan of the chase).

Those were the days; back when cooties were not only real, but conta-gious; when sharing your Chips Ahoy with a boy in the cafeteria was an automatic avowal of love. Back when hand-holding was an insurmountable hurdle—what if my hand gets all sweaty? Do you lace fingers? How long do I have to hold it for? Back when love was simple and certain and unfettered from the rules, games and second-guesses we now create for ourselves.

Don’t be mistaken, I’m not saying I secretly yearn for a relation-

ship—far from it. Anybody who’s wit-nessed my escapades from the past year can attest to the fact that I enjoy (no, more like crave) the life of a wild singleton. It would take nothing short of a declaration of undying affection from Aaron Rodgers or Ryan Reynolds for me to abandon my cava-lier, flirtatious ways. I just can’t help myself; with so many boys and so lit-tle time, somebody has to play hard-to-get—and I’ve never been one to turn down a challenge.

While I may not believe in true love when it comes to my own life, there’s nothing sweeter than helping or watching others find it. I’m like Cher from “Clueless” that way.

Even if I don’t necessarily want to find it, I’m hopelessly in love with love. The kind that makes you smile and flush when you replay for the thousandth time everything that hap-pened the night before. The kind that makes you go absolutely roller-coaster crazy with lust and exhilaration. The kind that Taylor Swift romanticizes between the teardrops on her guitar.

Love is simultaneously the greatest and most painful emotion a

human being can experience. Mario Savio may have believed that freedom of speech is what separates humans from stones and stars, but I think it’s really the freedom to love. To fall madly in love, whether once in a life-time or over and over again.

I say “I love you” all the time—to the guys at Chipotle who don’t charge me extra for guacamole, to a dog I pet while walking through Sproul Plaza. To my family and my best friends and to the view out my car window when-ever I drive past my hometown beach.

But I don’t know for certain if I’ve ever been in love. I think I meant the words when I said them. Or maybe I was just so eager to have someone to say them to. Either way, there was never any fear or hesitation. To take such an incredible leap of faith was wonderful enough. To hear him say it back made it all the better.

At one point in the video, Elliott asks Bowie, “Why did you kiss me?”

“Because I like you,” Bowie says. No excuses, no games. She’s naïve and bold. She’s laying her heart on the line. She utterly lacks that self-con-scious fear of rejection that plagues us grown-ups (or near grown-ups). And really, why should she let that lead her astray? This is how she feels, and she’s going to say it, Goddammit.

Now I know I play my fair share of games. It’s just too irresistible not to. Hey, all’s fair in lust and war.

But the real deal shouldn’t require a manipulative upper hand. It shouldn’t accompany liquid courage. It should be easy, like how it is for these two kids. It should be simple and straightforward and exciting.

And we should all fist pump with elation as soon as we find it.

Current design for Lower Sproul renovation exceeds given budget

As the exact design of the new Lower Sproul Plaza continues to form, an esti-mate of the cost for the current design is over budget by about $10 million.

The renovation project for the plaza is about halfway through its schematic design phase, which is scheduled to conclude by the end of the summer and will eventually produce a design that matches the budgeted construc-tion cost of the project — about $90 million. And though an estimate by Langdon & Associates — a consultant to the project designers Moore Ruble Yudell Architects & Planners — esti-mated the cost of what has been de-signed so far to be about $10 million over, Alyosha Verzhbinsky, consulting architect to the ASUC for the project, said that number has not been “finally verified” yet.

“A number has been produced, and now the design team is looking to understand whether that number in-cludes all the scope numbers shown on the drawings — it’s just the normal process of developing a cost estimate,” Verzhbinsky said. “We are currently a little over budget but by how much is a little hard to determine.”

The entire budget of the project is

By J.D. Morris | [email protected]

about $223 million and stems from a combination of contributions from the campus, the UC Office of the President and student fees approved by the pas-sage of the B.E.A.R.S. Initiative in the 2010 ASUC General Election.

Currently, the actual construction of the project is slated to be completed in separate parts. Eshleman Hall — which will be completely rebuilt due to its seismically poor structure — is scheduled to undergo construction first after student groups now occupy-ing the roughly 70,000 square feet of space inside the building are relocated to temporary “surge” spaces, which are still being determined and will likely require some preliminary mainte-nance themselves.

Construction on the Martin Lu-ther King Jr. Student Union building and other renovations to the plaza are scheduled to begin subsequently, though Verzhbinsky said construction may be done all at once if it is deter-mined to be a significant cost saving.

Additionally, Verzhbinsky said any reductions in the project will probably be approached holistically.

“What we’re trying to avoid is say-

ing ‘okay, we’re going to take one space from here, we’re going to take another space from there, we’re going to reduce all of these things and we’re going to strip the building of its external mate-rials, and bingo, we saved $20 million — we’re happy,’ ... because that results in a project that has no integrity,” Ver-zhbinsky said.

Though the exact design of the new plaza is still preliminary, sketches shown in a presentation by Verzhbin-sky at the May 4 ASUC Senate meet-ing portrayed a significantly modified plaza, redesigned with the hopes of improving its functionality and overall use by students.

Changes displayed in the presenta-tion include an Eshleman Hall that is shorter and wider than the current building, as well as additions to the south and west sides of the student union and additional landscaping in the plaza itself.

“Entering the project, I didn’t really have any idea of what it would look like, but I kind of had an idea of what I wanted to see, and with respect to that, it’s exceeded all of my expectations,” said Waleed Abed, the Lower Sproul communications coordinator for the Graduate Assembly. “It’s going to be phenomenal.”

Joining the ranks of famous think-ers such as Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison and former UC Berkeley pro-fessor Robert Oppenheimer, three UC Berkeley faculty were elected to the National Academy of Sciences May 3.

Professor of mathematics and computer science James Demmel, professor of agricultural and resource economics Michael Hanemann and former adjunct professor of plant and microbial biology Athanasios Theologis are three of 15 UC scien-tists among this year’s 90 inductees

to the academy. As is true of previous years, the total number of UC faculty elected to the academy is higher than that of all other public universities combined.

The scientists will be formally in-ducted in April of 2012 at the organi-zation’s 149th annual meeting.

“The recent election of three UC Berkeley faculty to the National Academy of Science is recogni-tion of the high quality faculty here and across the UC system,” said UC Berkeley Chancellor Robert Birge-neau in a statement. ...

School district considers new areas to cut spending

As the strain of California’s budget woes trickles down to the local level, the Berkeley Unified School District is considering cutting millions of dollars worth of services and staff-ing from its budget for the upcoming school year.

The district has released a pro-posed set of cuts totalling $3.7 mil-lion, which could include up to four furlough days, several teacher layoffs and an increase in class sizes. But the district is also grappling with the pos-sibility of nearly $7 million in reduc-tions, a situation that could become a reality depending on the cuts made in Gov. Jerry Brown’s May revision of the state budget, which will not be re-leased until May 16.

While district officials try to find more places to possibly reduce

spending in an approximately $100 million budget, the proposed cuts that total nearly $4 million are al-ready facing resistance. The district is considering increasing class sizes from 28 to 30 students to save over $1 million, as well as furloughing between one to four days from the school year.

“Everything that’s on the table, be it class size, be it furloughs ... all of these are really painful decisions that are go-ing to, in one way or another, decrease the quality of education that the dis-trict can provide,” said district Board of Education Director Josh Daniels. “We can try to mitigate that, but they’re all decisions that will make the district worse off.”

budGEt: Revision could affect UC’s fiscal prospects

the education and business lead-ers were somewhat mitigated by recent news from the state De-partment of Finance projecting a larger-than-expected influx of tax revenue this spring. In a report released Thursday, the Legisla-tive Analyst’s Office estimated the new revenue will trim the state’s $15.4 billion deficit by $2.54 bil-lion, though finance department officials cautioned that until new costs are factored in, the state’s budget is still in flux.

Changes in population-driven services like schools, health care and correction facilities have to be factored in against new revenues, according to a statement issued by Ana Matosantos, director of the de-partment. Those revenues will not be weighed until Brown releases his spring revision of the state bud-get on May 16. Until then, Brown’s plan to fill the state’s deficit remains unclear.

Though his original budget released in January proposed cutting $12.5 billion from state expenditures and levying $14 bil-lion in voter-dependent tax exten-sions, Brown failed to garner the two-thirds majority vote required to place the tax extensions on the June ballot and only ended up signing $11.2 billion in cuts in March.

What remains to be seen is if Brown’s May revision of the bud-get resorts to an all-cuts approach to bridge the deficit. A profile of Brown in The New York Times pub-lished online Sunday cites sources who attended a private meeting of Democratic legislators where Brown defended his budget plan by saying he believes in the “Hernan-do Cortes approach ... when you hit the shore, burn the ships. There is no Plan B.”

But for the University of Cali-fornia, the difference between $500 million and $1 billion in cuts could be devastating, consid-ering that the cuts will come out of the $2.9 billion the university received in state general funding in 2010-11.

For now, the UC will have to wait for Brown’s May 16 revision of the budget to come out to see if its prospects have changed. And though the new $2.54 billion in revenue offers a small reprieve, it is not enough to fill the daunting deficit.

“(The new revenue) in no way lessens the necessity of continuing to close the rest of the budget,” said H.D. Palmer, a spokesperson for the state finance department. “There are a number of other factors that determine what the (deficit) will be on the 16th.”

Five hunger strik-ers protesting the consolidation of staff positions in three UC Berkeley social science departments entered their tenth day of fasting outside Cali-fornia Hall on Friday as meetings between administrators and student representa-tives had not resolved protesters’ demands.

The gender and women’s stud-ies, African American studies and ethnic studies departments are currently facing staff consolidation through the organizational simpli-fication initiative of Operational

Excellence. The initiative plans to reorganize staff members within the departments and cut work hours as part of a restructuring ef-fort to save $500,000 in the Social Sciences Division. ...

Opinion “EDITORIALS

The outstanding accomplishments of these leaders of tomorrow should not be disregarded, nor their future jeopardized, simply because of their legal status.”

—Mark Yudof, UC President

When a student earns a spot at the University of California, finances

should not prevent his or her enrollment, though this is too often the case for undocument-ed students.

On Thursday, the state assem-bly passed one half of the California DREAM Act, AB 130, which allows students attending one of California’s public insti-tutions of higher education to apply for institutional aid.

Though similar legislative efforts were unsuccessful twice due to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s use of the veto, Gov. Jerry Brown has said that he would sign the act into law should it pass both houses of California’s legislature. We support Brown’s policy and encourage him to go through with his stated intent.

On March 8, UC President Mark Yudof released a letter supporting AB 130. We expect that Yudof and the other UC officials endorsing AB 130 have thought through the fiscal implications that the act would have on the already strained university budget. With that being said, we echo their sup-port of AB 130.

Though AB 130 comes at a time when education funding is facing drastic cuts and campus-es are being forced to pare down expenses, we believe that a student worthy of attending the finest public university sys-tem in the world should not be prevented from doing so based solely on inability to meet rising costs.

AB 131, which is the other bill that makes up the California DREAM Act, would allow undocumented students to receive direct state aid to attend school. Though this bill was suspended briefly, it will likely go up for a vote later this month. While we support the underlying principle, the state simply cannot afford the bill. Until then, state legislators and the governor should focus solely on AB 130 because it addresses financial need for an under-served but deserving population at no direct cost to the state.

With its large undocumented population and world-class uni-versity system, California has a chance to lead the nation by example through the adoption of AB 130. We strongly urge California’s leaders to assume that leadership role.

We endorse Assembly Bill 130 and Gov. Brown’splan to sign the bill into law after it passes both houses.

A DREAM come true

Koch money influences climate science

The threat of corporate funding influencing climate change research and politics has arrived. Oil billion-aires Charles and David Koch—co-owners of Koch Industries, which was named the second largest privately held company in the U.S. in 2010 by Forbes—rank amongst the nation’s most noticeable funders of efforts to prevent legislation curbing fossil-fuel burning, which produces greenhouse gases. At $150,000, the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation has also been the biggest contributor to the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature study, a project aiming to achieve “new analysis of the surface temperature record in a manner that ... (resolves) current criticism...and to prepare an open record that will allow response to further criticism or suggestions.”

As staunch, pro-business conservatives with the welfare of their corporations at heart, the brothers may want data showing that climate change is not significant and environ-mental regulations unneces-sary. However, much more is at stake than their wealth. If the U.S. does not enforce stricter limitations on greenhouse gas emis-sions, global warming and climate change will continue at the peril of future generations. The best estimate for the increase in global average tem-perature by 2100 ranges from two to four degrees Celsius with uncertainties factored in. Although this doesn’t sound significant on a day-to- day basis, a global average temperature change of five to six degrees Celsius moved Earth from the middle of an ice age to the warm period in between ice ages. In addition, the U.S.’s credibility in inter-national discussions on climate change will evaporate if we continually fail to implement environmental regulations.

The Koch brother’s penetration of U.S. politics is visible in the House Energy and Commerce Committee, where 27 out of the 54 of the represen-tatives are funded by the Koch Industries.Along with its employees, Koch Industries has contributed

$279,500 to 22 of 31 Republicans in the House Energy and Commerce Committee and $32,000 to five Democrats, outspending even Exxon Mobil. In addition, nine of 12 new Republicans in the committee have

signed a pledge by Americans

for Prosperity, an advocacy group founded by David Koch that opposes the Obama adminis-tration’s proposal to regulate green-house gases.

Climate denialism is not new. U.S. economist Julian Simon started the movement by promoting human inge-nuity as the ultimate resource for growth. This dominant, anthropocen-tric paradigm saw the potential for great progress and wealth through con-verting the environment into necessary resources. Also, the fall of Communism left conservatives without an enemy to unite against, a gap which they filled with the environmental movement.

The main strategy used by climate change deniers is manufacturing and disseminating uncertainty. These strat-egies were first employed by the tobac-co industry; lobbyists against tobacco sales regulations wanted proof over pre-caution, and public relations specialists

OP-ED

gave hired contrarian scientists appeal-ing sound bites. Many key actors fight-ing environmental regulations also fought against tobacco sales regula-tions, so they know that debating sci-ence is more effective than debating policy, hence their primary strategy is to frame mainstream climate science as “junk science,” implying that deniers use “sound science” while hiding their conflicting interests.

Climate change denial can only be ended through greater transparency and improved public education. The consensus over anthropogenic green-house gases by both the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and other major scien-tific bodies must be emphasized. For example, out of 928 papers on climate change published in peer-reviewed

journals between 1993 and 2003, 75 percent explicitly or implicitly stated

that there is a consensus on the reality of climate change while no papers argued against the con-sensus.

The public must know about the unreliable quality of the data published by contrarian scientists in non-scientific outlets, along with their often lackluster credentials in envi-ronmental science. A study

was conducted in which the expertise and credibility of cli-mate scientists endorsing the IPCC was compared to that of

contrarian scientists through the number of peer-reviewed publica-

tions on climate change and the num-ber of citations their publications received. Results showed a large dis-crepancy with the contrarian scientists ranking far lower in expertise and expe-rience.

Finally, climate change can be better incorporated into school curriculum. Unlike the controversy over evolution versus creationism, climate change is not an ideological issue.

Concern in the U.S. about global warming and environmental regula-tions is low compared to other nations. If the U.S. wants to be a role model, the public must be informed and actively pursuing stricter climate change poli-cies. Otherwise, the U.S. will continue to remain a free rider in regards to the climate, the globe’s ultimate collective good.

op-ed made irrelevant claims on account of budget knowledge

Ad hominems aside, what is Ms. Rosen’s own view about the trend of state support for UC? Is she expecting the state to reverse decades of declining shares of UC’s budget? If so, what’s the evidence for that expectation? If not, what is her proposal for ensuring that UC be able to attract, retain and compensate the finest faculty in the world while assuring Californians of affordable access to excellent education?

I would be overjoyed to be proven wrong, but my knowledge of the state budget leads me to conclude that state support for UC is more likely to decline than to increase. In the absence of com-pelling evidence to the contrary, isn’t it incumbent on everyone interested in the welfare of UC and its mission to develop long range plans for ensur-ing access, affordability and excellence?

LETTERS TO ThE EDITOR

By Tiffany Cheng Special to the Daily [email protected]

A pleasant surpriseCAMPUS ISSUESThe decision to reinstate the men’s gymnastics team is hopefully the is hopefully the end to this sports-saga.

The men’s gymnastic team will be reinstat-ed, making it the fifth

and final sports team to survive the proposed athletics cut.

Despite only securing approximately $2.5 million out of their targeted $4 million, the men’s team expects that the funds will last for an estimated seven to 10 years. Although the target was not met, we are still happy that such a successful program—with large contribu-tions to national and Olympic teams—will remain on campus.

The men’s gymnastics team should use this opportunity to make itself more noticeable in Berkeley and continue to raise funds.

We worry that this reinstate-ment has the potential to stifle fundraising efforts going for-ward, something that cannot happen, given the existing funds only last so long.

More than most other teams that faced the proposed cut—such as rugby and baseball—men’s gymnastics must fill the gap between the $4 million goal and the $2.5 million reali-ty because of their lower profile on campus.

This is not out of reach, how-

ever, as part of the initial fund-raising effort involved an out-reach program with USA Gymnastics, and such national ties can be utilized in future endeavors as a possible expan-sion of financial resources.

We also hope that donations from alumni and university sports patrons do not stop as a result of the reinstatement.

The campus’s decision to force the program to cut the number of scholarships from 4.7 to three, paired with the decision to make incoming gymnasts ineligible for scholar-ships, is an unfortunate but fair result of the lack of funds. If more money becomes available, then scholarships should be reinstated, but the current state of finances makes this compro-mise tolerable.

Because the men’s gymnastics team does not have the luxury of a large donor base, it must con-tinue its efforts to secure its spot on campus for the long-term.

Still, its flexibility in the face of adversity offers a broader les-son during such difficult eco-nomic times. We congratulate the men’s gymnastics team and wish them luck in the coming years.

OP-ED

Bin Laden’s death no reason to celebrate

Well, we’ve done it. We’ve killed the man who started it all. We’ve destroyed the Satan of our time. And now, what’s left? What do we have to show for it?

I’m not sure I’m celebrating with you, America.

But let me say this first: I am glad that he is gone. Osama bin Laden was a man whose fervent religious fanaticism led him and his followers to carry out one of the most treacherous acts in the history of humankind. He needed to answer for his crimes. He needed to atone for the blood he spilled. But I’m not sure this does it.

I do not feel that the deaths of thousands of innocent Americans have been properly avenged. Let me also say that I offer my sincere love and thanks to our military forces around the world. You are heroes—I wish you didn’t have to be.

Another man is dead. Another soul is gone from the Earth. Fantastic; that means we have one less person to worry about. What about all the other souls?

As I understand it, and I admit to not being thoroughly briefed in the field, Al Qaeda, Hamas and all other terrorist organizations are Hydras. They have multiple evil heads, and when one is cut off, two replace it. How many zealots will now step up to avenge the death of their leader? How many more peo-ple need to die before people are accepted regardless of race, color and creed?

Bin Laden may be dead, but his ideals are still alive and well. How much money was spent in the witch hunt to destroy him? How many lives were lost post Sept. 11 to fight the war on terror? How many more terrorists were created after the American military marched through their homes and killed their fathers,

brothers and sons? It seems like history is doomed

to repeat itself yet again. Did killing Saddam Hussein make sense of the invasion of Iraq? I don’t think so. Did the death of Hitler and his cro-nies atone for their atrocious crimes? Not in the slightest. Did Napoleon’s demise end European land wars and power grabs? Nope.

It seems that the masses, as a whole, have not yet evolved from their primal states. People called for bin Laden’s body to be dragged through the streets and his head stuck on a pike. What end would this serve? Only to incite more hate, anger and division between our cultures.

If we keep celebrating this death, how are we better than those who wronged us? An old proverb states that two wrongs do not make a right. At which point did we forget those wise words? If we are unable to take the high road, imagine how hard it is for those on the other side of the conflict. Killing will only lead to more kill-ing, and it will not stop until one group is able to invite peace.

Those Americans that died on Sept. 11, 2001 deserve better. They do not deserve an outpouring of jingois-tic pride that only stokes the embers of the fire. They deserve to be remembered and honored in a way in which the world moves towards the elimination of terrorism. Killing leads to more terror—reconciling eradicates it.

Killing Osama bin Laden doesn’t end the economic crisis America is

facing. It doesn’t end the partisan political battles that constantly threaten to tear this country apart. It doesn’t end disease, hunger or poverty. It doesn’t end our wars.

All it ended was a life. And celebrate now, America,

because tomorrow the sun will still rise, the bell on Wall Street will still ring and all of the problems of the world will still be unanswered.

audit: Regents discuss cost-saving strategies to resolve debt

be paid off within one year — totalled $8.7 billion, while the current assets — which can be sold within one year for a profit — totalled $8.2 billion.

A major component discussed re-garding cost-saving efforts to try to remedy the increasing debt was through technology consolidation efforts, partic-ularly with software and data programs throughout the UC system.

According to Chief Information Of-ficer David Ernst, the UC is temporarily using space at the San Diego Supercom-puter Center to host 10 racks of servers — one for each campus — to test out how well software systems for things such as payroll and human resources could be monitored and developed as well as see how successful connectivity will be for the 10 UC campuses.

“Changes require money. There is not

a lot of free cash at the moment, and we are stressed to find extra money needed to do the single things we have been do-ing,” he said at the meeting. “There has to be a rationale to spend the money today and know when we are going to see some benefits from those expenditures.”

The report also states that capital spending — funding that goes towards long-term assets that help in the pro-duction of future goods and services — throughout the UC continues at a “brisk pace” in order to provide the facilities necessary to support the uni-versity’s teaching, research and public service mission and for patient care.

Facilities include academic buildings, libraries, student services, housing and auxiliary enterprises, health science cen-ters, utility plants and infrastructure and remote centers for educational outreach,

research and public service.Part of the UC’s total debt, which

has increased by nearly $3 billion since 2008, comes from $408 million used to finance the use of commercial paper — a line of credit with large institutional in-vestment groups — in 2010. This is down from 2009, when the UC used a total of $666 million worth of commercial pa-per utilization and from 2008, when the UC used a total of $550 million.

Additionally, in 2010, $2.8 billion of debt was issued to finance and refi-nance facilities and projects at various UC campuses, though the report did not specify those projects.

“We’ve got great ratings services. The university has really high ratings from many ratings services,” Montiel said. “I don’t know there is any need to reduce liability.”

SchoolS: District considers possible restructuring of child care programs

more than $300,000 last year, is also bearing the brunt of this year’s proposed cuts. The district is con-sidering cutting more than one-third of the school’s $3.1 million total budget. This would include cuts to services for older adults and adults with disabilities, according to Burr Guthrie, the school’s prin-cipal.

Budget shortfalls are nothing new for districts around the state; for the past several years, as the nationwide financial recession continues and the state struggles to balance its budget, cuts to education have been com-monplace.

In the district alone, about $12 million have been cut over the past three years and about $21 million over the past seven years, accord-ing to district spokesperson Mark Coplan. Last year, the district originally proposed to cut around $3 million in various services, but when the final state budget was ap-proved Oct. 8, 2010, over $2 mil-lion in funding was restored to the district, allowing it to reverse many of its cuts.

But the district’s after-school programs faced a rocky road as a result of the state’s longest bud-get impasse in history. In August 2010, the district was forced to cut its state-subsidized childcare program BEARS (Berkeley’s Excel-lent Academic Road to Success) by 75 percent, dropping the number

of students served from 300 to 70 and laying off several teachers who worked within the program. Be-cause of the budget impasse in Sac-ramento, it was not until November 2010, after the beginning of the school year, that the district could begin rehiring teachers and reopen-ing classrooms.

This year, the district is consid-ering a possible restructuring of its child care programs in response to a 15 percent reduction in state funding for pre-school and extend-ed-day programs that has already been approved by the state, as well as an anticipated 10 percent reduc-tion in daily funding per student as part of Brown’s proposed budget cuts.

The change would eliminate the 9.5-hour program and poten-tially inconvenience parents who work eight-hour days, said Zach-ary Pless, district supervisor for extended learning programs, al-though he added that the district has asked him for alternate propos-als as well.

With all of these preliminary plans, the district is preparing to approve a budget by June 30. But, like last year, the numbers could change based on how the state’s cuts are approved or rejected in the May revision.

“It does feel a bit silly in some ways because the entire game board could change for us,” Pless said.

Spending: Bill’s authors hope for future consideration

members only organization, it is a party that represents all students, and there-fore, does not require or accept a mem-bership fee.”

According to CalSERVE Senator Kenny Gong, each CalSERVE candi-date contributes $100 for “coalition-related expenses.”

“Specifically, that includes general CalSERVE buttons, a subsidy of the CalSERVE t-shirts, and particularly, retreats,” Gong said in an email. “The

retreats are important for honing (candidates’) political educations that are beyond the purview of election-specific work.”

Though their concerns are left unad-dressed for the time being, Salahi and Horning said they are hoping the bill will be reconsidered in the future, ei-ther by another senate class or through the referendum process.

“I think it’s a very simple, concrete measure that most people would

agree with,” Salahi said. “There’s a reason why candidates don’t have unchecked spending, and it’s because it deteriorates and undermines the whole democratic principle of the elections process. Party spending is just a parallel argument that you can make.”
