Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Howard Schachman UC Berkeley Professor of Molecular Biology: On the Loyalty Oath Controversy, the Free Speech Movement, and Freedom in Scientific Research Interviews conducted by Ann Lage in 2000-2001 Copyright © 2007 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 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 Howard Schachman, dated April 26, 2007.

With humble beginnings, the core of the Arts and Crafts/Mission style building was conceived by Bernard Maybeck as a simple clubhouse which was nestled in a tree lined glade. Harmonious additions and alterations were designed by John Galen Howard, Warren Perry, Winfield Wellington, Michael Goodman, as well as Downs and Lagorio. More than a building, the Faculty Club has hosted numerous discussions which have, no doubt, had effects on the world as we know it today. I. HISTORIC STRUCTURE REPORT A.

THE MANAGEMENT of INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS at UC BERKELEY: Turning Points and Consequences*
Research & Occasional Paper Series: CSHE.12.13 UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY http://cshe.berkeley.edu/ THE MANAGEMENT OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS AT UC BERKELEY: Turning Points and Consequences* November 2013 John Cummins and Kirsten Hextrum UC Berkeley Copyright 2013 John Cummins and Kirsten Hextrum, all rights reserved. ABSTRACT This white paper was prepared at the request of the Advisory Committee to the Athletic Study Center as a result of their concern over poor graduation rates in football as released by the NCAA in 2012. The paper received extensive review by the members of that committee as well as several other knowledgeable faculty and senior administrators before it was forwarded to the University Athletics Board in late May, 2013. It is based on a larger project being conducted with the Regional Oral History Office at the Bancroft Library. The purpose of the research is to explore the history of the management of Intercollegiate Athletics at UC Berkeley from the 1960s to the present. The project began in 2009 and will include, when completed, approximately 70 oral history interviews of individuals who played key roles in the management of intercollegiate athletics over that period of time – Chancellors, Athletic Directors, senior administrators, Faculty Athletic Representatives, other key faculty members, directors of the Recreational Sports Program, alumni/donors, administrators in the Athletic Study Center and others. The interviews were conducted by John Cummins, Associate Chancellor – Chief of Staff, Emeritus who worked under Chancellors Heyman, Tien, Berdahl and Birgeneau from 1984 – 2008. Intercollegiate Athletics reported to him from 2004 – 2006. A publication of the results is underway and will be co-authored by Cummins and Kirsten Hextrum, a PhD student in the Graduate School of Education, a member and two-time national champion of Cal Women’s Crew from 2003 – 2007, and a tutor/adviser in the Athletic Study Center since 2009.
