Forestry Education at the University of California: the First Fifty Years
fORESTRY EDUCRTIOfl T THE UflIVERSITY Of CALIFORflffl The first fifty Years PAUL CASAMAJOR, Editor Published by the California Alumni Foresters Berkeley, California 1965 fOEUJOD T1HEhistory of an educational institution is peculiarly that of the men who made it and of the men it has helped tomake. This books tells the story of the School of Forestry at the University of California in such terms. The end of the first 50 years oi forestry education at Berkeley pro ides a unique moment to look back at what has beenachieved. A remarkable number of those who occupied key roles in establishing the forestry cur- riculum are with us today to throw the light of personal recollection and insight on these five decades. In addition, time has already given perspective to the accomplishments of many graduates. The School owes much to the California Alumni Foresters Association for their interest in seizing this opportunity. Without the initiative and sustained effort that the alunmi gave to the task, the opportunity would have been lost and the School would have been denied a valuable recapitulation of its past. Although this book is called a history, this name may be both unfair and misleading. If it were about an individual instead of an institution it might better be called a personal memoir. Those who have been most con- cerned with the task of writing it have perhaps been too close to the School to provide objective history. But if anything is lost on this score, it is more than regained by the personalized nature of the account. -

Democratizing the Union at Uc Berkeley: Lecturers and Librarians in Solidarity
FINAL AUTHOR VERSION - 1 DEMOCRATIZING THE UNION AT UC BERKELEY: LECTURERS AND LIBRARIANS IN SOLIDARITY Margaret Phillips, David Eifler, Tiffany Linton Page University of California, Berkeley ABSTRACT This article explores how librarians and lecturers at the University of California, Berkeley worked together to make their union local more participatory in a context of increasing corporatization in public higher education. Written as a case study, we examine this ongoing revitalization process initiated by lecturers in the summer of 2016 and how it transformed librarian activism and bargaining strategy. For context, we also examine the history and unique nature of the University Council – American Federation of Teachers, the union representing both librarians and lecturers. We discuss why librarians had become ambivalent about their union and how an active group of librarians changed the culture in the organization and worked to bring members’ voices into the 2018/2019 librarian contract negotiations. Engaging membership and encouraging participation required a group of committed organizers, with the support of paid union staff, to actively seek feedback from members, to communicate regularly and to organize solidarity events within the community. Throughout this process the local worked to build coalitions with other campus unions and, as a result, its members became increasingly aware of the important role unions play in protecting and advancing the mission of a public university and as a site for social justice activism. INTRODUCTION The University Council – American Federation of Teachers (UC-AFT), the librarian union at the University of California (UC) Berkeley, was one of the first academic library unions in the country but had been relatively dormant for the last 25 years. -
E Pluribus Unum: the Berkeley Free Speech Movement of 1964 Madeleine Riskin-Kutz
E pluribus unum: The Berkeley Free Speech Movement of 1964 Madeleine Riskin-Kutz Free Speech Movement march through Sather Gate, Mona Hutchin on the extreme right (marchers’ perspective) and Mario Savio on the extreme left. From Warshaw p.56, photo credit: Ron Enfield, Nov. 20, 1964 Madeleine R-K, E pluribus unum, cont. During the academic year of 1964-65, a political movement took place at the University of California (UC), Berkeley bringing together students and faculty from across the political spectrum — from communists to campaigners for right-wing Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater. Members of the movement united in their demand for free speech on campus and specifically, to be allowed to set up tables on campus to campaign for political causes. Their movement took place through demonstrations and sit-ins, ultimately achieving success in December 1964, when the academic senate voted unanimously to approve a resolution that there would henceforth be no restrictions on the content of speech or political advocacy on campus, except in regard to time, place and manner. Histories of the Free Speech Movement (FSM) have represented it as left wing and have therefore overlooked one of its essential features: it was a broad coalition operating largely by consensus among people with widely differing political views. By restoring the center-to-right wing side of the history of the FSM, we can first of all recognize this broad coalition’s existence, then also understand it was possible because of a form of universalism among students. A universal principle united the members of the Free Speech Movement. -

Conferred up on Beverly Willis FAIA by AIA California Council October 2017 Monterrey Design Conference, Monterrey, CA Award Certificate Text “A Lifetime of Exemplary Service to the Architectural Profession. Your commitment to design excellence and your dedication to the highest standard of the profession is inspiring. Your courage for exploration created a litany of firsts and paved the way for many women who dreamed of working in the architectural profession. Your example has been empowering to many and your career is replete with numerous appointments to prestigious boards, commissions. Your unwavering dedication to enhancing the appreciation of architects and architecture will long be remembered”. For more than seventy years, Beverly Willis, FAIA, (b. 1928) has steadily made contributions to the architecture profession in the realms of design, planning, and practice, whether through research, innovation, leadership, or filmmaking. An autodidact ever willing to take risks, Willis accepted commissions for which there were no built precedents, adopted practices that did not become mainstream until decades later, and sought research-driven solutions unique to each project. Designing separate projects during parallel years, Willis together with William Wurster and Lawrence Halprin, pioneered the concept of adaptive reuse.
