Your tax dollars at work–UC’s (un)official position in the election

Posted by Spencer Doyle @ 1:18 am

As Chancellor of UC Berkeley, I am writing to inform you of the likely impacts on our campus of the passage of Proposition 8. …

Proposition 8 is in conflict with the principles of equity and inclusion to which our campus is committed. … In denying a fundamental civil right, passage of Proposition 8 would undermine these principles….

… Proposition 8 will harm the social conditions in our state that promote creativity, justice, and prosperity.

Although you must judge for yourselves how to vote … I would urge you to take into account the impacts that passage of Proposition 8 would have on our campus community.

Robert J. Birgeneau
Chancellor, UC Berkeley
