“Once a promising statewide public university system designed to provide tuition-free education to California’s working class, the CSU has degenerated into a corporatized behemoth that mocks the democratic values upon which it was founded.” -Matthew Ford jacobin.com/2024/01/califo…

Our students, faculty, and communities cannot function under the repression and brutality we are witnessing at places of learning across California and the nation, including at Cal Poly Humboldt where students are advocating for justice & human rights in Palestine.

Proud of my colleagues like Bikrum Gill who stand with our students
