  • Rick Laubscher: Forty Years of Giving Back to San Francisco, from KRON to Market Street Railway
    Oral History Center University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Rick Laubscher Rick Laubscher: Forty Years of Giving Back to San Francisco, From KRON to Market Street Railway Interviews conducted by Todd Holmes in 2016 Copyright © 2017 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Oral History Center of the Bancroft Library, formerly the Regional Oral History Office, has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Rick Laubscher dated March 30, 2017 The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

  • Experimental Activism at UCSC, 1965-1970
    1 Experimental Activism at UCSC, 1965-1970 By Robbie Stockman The 1960s shifted Americans' consciousness from complacency to dissatisfaction and revolt. The Civil Rights, Free Speech, Third World and antiwar movements together with the hippie subculture plunged the nation into chaotic liberation. In response to student concerns, University of California administrators created an ideal learning experiment at Santa Cruz. UC president Clark Kerr, UC Dean of Academic Planning Dean McHenry and University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) history professor Page Smith dedicated the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) to undergraduate education. Through a series of academic reforms and innovative techniques, UCSC administrators and faculty created an intellectually stimulating, communal university. Students at UCSC were compelled to create the culture of their university in this tumultuous time. Though UCSC student activism involved intellectual discussion and peaceful protest, they were ineffective at creating social change and as the campus developed, UC Berkeley and San Francisco State University (SFSU) began to control the direction of UCSC thought and action. UCSC: The Creation of an Aesthetic The dilemma at previous universities resulted from professors torn between their own research and educating undergraduate students. In the "publish or perish" world of higher education, professors focused mostly on their own research at the expense of student learning. UCLA history professor Page Smith considered such actions wasteful, considering

Pister: UCSC Chancellorship, 1991-1996 Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7pn93507 Authors Pister, Karl Jarrell, Randall Regional History Project, UCSC Library Publication Date 2000 Supplemental Material https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7pn93507#supplemental eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Introduction The Regional History Project conducted eight interviews with UCSC Chancellor Karl S. Pister just prior to his retirement on June 30, 1996, as part of its University History series. Pister was originally named as the campus’s sixth chancellor for an interim two-year appointment by UC President David P. Gardner in August, 1991, after the resignation of UCSC Chancellor Robert B. Stevens. In March, 1992, the UC Regents approved President Gardner’s recommendation for Pister’s regular appointment as chancellor. Prior to his appointment, Pister had spent his entire academic life at UC Berkeley—thirty years as a faculty member and fifteen years as an academic administrator—and as a seasoned veteran of the UC system and its bureaucracy, he knew the workings of the Academic Senate, the key figures in the University administration, and the institution’s policies and culture, all of which stood him in good stead at UC Santa Cruz. Born in Stockton, California, Pister received his B.S. (1945) and M.S. degrees (1948) in civil engineering at UC Berkeley. In 1952 he received his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois in theoretical and applied mechanics. He began his career at UC as a lecturer in 1947, and in 1952 joined the faculty of the College of Engineering where he had a distinguished career as a professor of engineering.

  • Unhappy in Its Own Way an Institutional Biography of UC Santa Cruz
    Unhappy in Its Own Way An Institutional Biography of UC Santa Cruz Ronnie D. Lipschutz Summary Reports from the many outposts of higher education across the United States and the world reflect often-lurid power struggles, among faculty, staff, administrators and even institutional governors. No one is very interested in the normal everyday operation of organizations, most which is pretty dull. When change is thought to be required, administrations tend to launch centralized initiatives that seek to reform or quickly quickly how the organization operates. This, however, is much like trying to turn a supertanker on a dime. It cannot be done. Moreover, such plans, if they are implemented at all, are likely to turn out quite differently from the original vision, with subsequent planning attempts to undo the damage caused by earlier plans. In the corporate world, planning is passé, and the notion that higher education is “in crisis” has led to a continuing craze for rapid institutional innovation through new management strategies and “leadership,” both seen as simply individual skills that can be learned and deployed. These have come to substitute for careful consideration of the many factors and forces that universities face, both internally and externally. Do such things work? This book serves two purposes: First, it a reflection on the world faced by universities across the United States, 20 years into the 21st century. The so-called crisis of higher education in the United States has come to occupy many minds and managers, including faculty, administrators, pundits, politicians, scandalmongers and even Presidents. Whether there is such a crisis is questionable, in part because it is linked to larger changes in political economies, between the end of World War II and today, that made higher education possible on a large scale and seem defective today.
