UC Budget Walkout
On Thursday, thousands of faculty, students and staff at University of California campuses plan to walk out. They say it's a reaction to UC officials proposing tuition hikes and furloughs to contend with $800 million in state budget cuts. We discuss the university's fiscal reality, and the available alternatives.
Host: Michael Krasny
Guests:
- Judith Butler, professor in the departments of Rhetoric and Comparative Literature at UC Berkeley
- Lawrence Pitts, interim provost and executive vice president for academic affairs for the University of California
- Nanette Asimov, education reporter for The San Francisco Chronicle
- Victor Sanchez, president of the University of California Student Association
