"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

The median rent is \u003ca href=\"https://www.zillow.com/san-jose-ca/home-values/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$3,500\u003c/a>. It can be difficult even for tenured professors to compete in that housing market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You work very hard on a professional degree or a doctorate and you work very hard to establish your career,” said SJSU sociology professor William Armaline. “I’m a tenured professor. You expect at least to not live a fully precarious existence in terms of, you know, housing and food.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Armaline and his wife, who works as a social worker, can’t afford to buy a house in San Jose. They rent a condo about 2 miles from campus. They got a good deal on the rent, and the landlord hasn’t asked for market rate in seven years. But it’s a tight squeeze for the couple, their foster daughter and their foster grandkid. And it’s in need of some serious updates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re in the kind of situation that we’re in, and I think many others are in, you basically start fixing everything yourself and seeing which you can live with,” Armaline said. “Because, you know, you’re really only living at the generosity of that landlord, who quite frankly has a great deal more interest in getting rid of you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>But What About Homeless Students?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>But faculty and staff should not be the school’s only priority, according to Mayra Bernabe of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/shasjsu/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Student Homeless Alliance\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Student Homelessness\" tag=\"student-homelessness\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www2.calstate.edu/impact-of-the-csu/student-success/basic-needs-initiative/Documents/BasicNeedsStudy_phaseII_withAccessibilityComments.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A 2018 survey\u003c/a> found that roughly 13 percent of San Jose State students experienced homelessness in the past year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our students cannot go through their four years plus without the basic needs. And that’s, you know, food and housing,” Bernabe said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some homeless students spend the night in San Jose State’s 24-hour library. Juan Marrufo, who just graduated from San Jose State, used to sleep there sometimes between shifts at his part-time job and classes. He says you don’t get good sleep there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would have my backpack around my arms because I was afraid that somebody might steal my backpack or my information,” Marrufo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Alliance is asking that 20 percent of Faas’ planned units be affordable for very low-income and extremely low-income students. But even if he agrees, it would be several years before anyone gets a door key.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman Ash Kalra helped put a $250,000 allocation to San Jose State into the California general budget to help the university create a development plan.

California’s Department of General Services will evaluate SJSU’s plans, and make a decision on the Alquist building’s fate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The] decision would be guided by what is in the state’s best interest,” said Jennifer Lida, a Dept. of General Services spokesperson in an email to KQED. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But it’s a balance of any number of factors, including: our authority; state needs, such as housing; our fiduciary responsibility; the tenant department’s needs; the constituents of the tenant departments and other state agency needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

They rent a condo about 2 miles from campus. They got a good deal on the rent, and the landlord hasn’t asked for market rate in seven years. But it’s a tight squeeze for the couple, their foster daughter and their foster grandkid. And it’s in need of some serious updates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re in the kind of situation that we’re in, and I think many others are in, you basically start fixing everything yourself and seeing which you can live with,” Armaline said. “Because, you know, you’re really only living at the generosity of that landlord, who quite frankly has a great deal more interest in getting rid of you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>But What About Homeless Students?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>But faculty and staff should not be the school’s only priority, according to Mayra Bernabe of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/shasjsu/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Student Homeless Alliance\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He grew up in Garden Grove, and he says his enthusiasm for American culture made his parents nervous he was out of touch with his heritage. “I was not learning any Japanese culture. They said ‘We gotta change that!'” So they introduced him to judo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1940, as a freshman at San Jose State, Uchida was asked to teach judo as a student coach. He taught for two years before being drafted into the Army during World War II — during which his own family was separated and sent to internment camps across the American West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, San Jose State was one of several processing centers in the Bay Area where Japanese-Americans were sorted and sent away to camps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Uchida returned from the war in 1947, he picked up where he left off — and then some. Over the years, he helped establish judo in the US. As a result of his advocacy, San Jose State sponsored the first nationwide Amateur Athletic Union championship in 1953. Since then, San Jose State has dominated the sport nationally, winning more competitions than university clubs in the rest of the country combined. Twenty-two San Jose Spartans have gone to the Olympics and four won medals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Uchida hasn’t just created a judo dynasty coaching at San Jose State. He’s responsible for judo becoming a competitive sport in America,” says ESPN’s Tom Rinaldi in this profile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vVKVSySLjo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\">Talking about his long career to reporters at the luncheon, Uchida mentioned Malloy’s win in London as a “recent” highlight. Then he immediately launched into distinctly fatherly praise for her new career in technology as a social media manager for 30 brands. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They came looking for someone like her,” Uchida says, explaining his long-term conviction about the powerful appeal of demonstrated excellence in sports and academics, starting with its effect on students’ self-confidence. “As students work out and get better and better, it gives confidence to push forward,” the coach says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s his joy in life, first of all, his belief in people to achieve and to challenge themselves, and his commitment to helping each and every person do that. It’s genuine, it’s authentic and it’s inspiring,” says San Jose State President Mary Papazian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11660482\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11660482\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-800x329.jpg\" alt=\"Another practice begins with San Jose State Coach Uchida at the helm.\" width=\"800\" height=\"329\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-800x329.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-160x66.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-1020x420.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-1180x486.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-960x395.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-240x99.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-375x154.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut-520x214.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/04/RS30331_Screen-Shot-2018-04-06-at-4.52.42-PM-qut.jpg 1914w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Another practice begins with San Jose State Coach Uchida at the helm. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of San Jose State University)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Today, Eitan Gelber is the \u003ca href=\"http://www.stanfordsportsmedicine.com/athletic-training/bio-eitan-gelber/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Director of Athletic Training\u003c/a> at Stanford.

He grew up in Garden Grove, and he says his enthusiasm for American culture made his parents nervous he was out of touch with his heritage. “I was not learning any Japanese culture. They said ‘We gotta change that!'” So they introduced him to judo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1940, as a freshman at San Jose State, Uchida was asked to teach judo as a student coach. He taught for two years before being drafted into the Army during World War II — during which his own family was separated and sent to internment camps across the American West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ironically, San Jose State was one of several processing centers in the Bay Area where Japanese-Americans were sorted and sent away to camps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Uchida returned from the war in 1947, he picked up where he left off — and then some. Over the years, he helped establish judo in the US. As a result of his advocacy, San Jose State sponsored the first nationwide Amateur Athletic Union championship in 1953. Since then, San Jose State has dominated the sport nationally, winning more competitions than university clubs in the rest of the country combined. Twenty-two San Jose Spartans have gone to the Olympics and four won medals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Uchida hasn’t just created a judo dynasty coaching at San Jose State. He’s responsible for judo becoming a competitive sport in America,” says ESPN’s Tom Rinaldi in this profile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/6vVKVSySLjo'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/6vVKVSySLjo'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\">Talking about his long career to reporters at the luncheon, Uchida mentioned Malloy’s win in London as a “recent” highlight. Then he immediately launched into distinctly fatherly praise for her new career in technology as a social media manager for 30 brands. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They came looking for someone like her,” Uchida says, explaining his long-term conviction about the powerful appeal of demonstrated excellence in sports and academics, starting with its effect on students’ self-confidence. “As students work out and get better and better, it gives confidence to push forward,” the coach says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s his joy in life, first of all, his belief in people to achieve and to challenge themselves, and his commitment to helping each and every person do that.

He also supported some of them with financial loans, including to Gelber.

He admits he attended fewer and fewer classes, as the immediacy of the war gnawed on him. Almost every day, he says, there was a teach-in on the plaza by the administration building, or planning meetings for protests and marches at San Jose State. Underground newsletters like Sedition and The Red Eye kept student activists apprised of the latest news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran traveled with friends to other campuses to see famous people, including Angela Davis, Tom Hayden, Harry Edwards, Bobby Kennedy and Ralph Nader. But the 23,000 student campus at San Jose also pulled in top-line anti-war speakers and performers, including Joan Baez, who offered to sing a song for the first student who promised to burn his draft card should one come in the mail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran volunteered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose State students made national headlines again in 1970, when they marched to the San Jose Civic Auditorium, where President Richard Nixon’s \u003ca href=\"http://archives.chicagotribune.com/1970/10/30/page/1/article/mob-attacks-nixon-cars/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">motorcade left through a crowd\u003c/a> of angry demonstrators. GOP advertisements then used images of the scene to drum up political support for Republican candidates that election season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose State sociology Professor Emeritus Bob Gliner was also protesting the war back then. He says anti-war demonstrators were always a vocal minority on campus. In the decades since the Vietnam War, student activism has generally been episodic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some people say, ‘Oh, they grew out of it, or they grew up.’ But I think, if we want to have a vibrant democracy, it’s not something you grow out of,” Gliner says. “It’s something you integrate into your day to day life, to be conscious of world events and to do something about problems that really bother you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran, now 69, speaks proudly of a lifetime of political activism. After he was expelled in 1967, he returned to San Jose State to earn a masters degree. He became a social worker and returned to San Jose State to teach in the School of Social Work, where he’s still an emeritus lecturer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, he’s written articles and opinion pieces for local papers and blogs. His interests range from current politics, like the presidency of \u003ca href=\"https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2017/07/28/18801101.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Donald Trump\u003c/a>, to the historical, like \u003ca href=\"https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2016/06/08/18787319.php#18786938\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this essay\u003c/a> on four San Jose women who attempted to block the loading of napalm bombs headed for Vietnam in 1966. Currently, Villagran is focused on highlighting the Latino history of the South Bay with a group called the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/LaRazaHistoricalSocietySCV/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">La Raza Historical Society of Santa Clara Valley\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran says he would like the university to mark the area where students angrily protested Dow Chemical with a monument outside the administration building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There should be something here like that. Right here. Because that’s where it all happened,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>To read more of KQED’s series of articles regarding the impact of the Vietnam War on the Bay Area, visit \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/programs/vietnamwar/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">kqed.org/vietnamwar\u003c/a>. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

He admits he attended fewer and fewer classes, as the immediacy of the war gnawed on him. Almost every day, he says, there was a teach-in on the plaza by the administration building, or planning meetings for protests and marches at San Jose State. Underground newsletters like Sedition and The Red Eye kept student activists apprised of the latest news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran traveled with friends to other campuses to see famous people, including Angela Davis, Tom Hayden, Harry Edwards, Bobby Kennedy and Ralph Nader. But the 23,000 student campus at San Jose also pulled in top-line anti-war speakers and performers, including Joan Baez, who offered to sing a song for the first student who promised to burn his draft card should one come in the mail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran volunteered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose State students made national headlines again in 1970, when they marched to the San Jose Civic Auditorium, where President Richard Nixon’s \u003ca href=\"http://archives.chicagotribune.com/1970/10/30/page/1/article/mob-attacks-nixon-cars/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">motorcade left through a crowd\u003c/a> of angry demonstrators. GOP advertisements then used images of the scene to drum up political support for Republican candidates that election season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose State sociology Professor Emeritus Bob Gliner was also protesting the war back then. He says anti-war demonstrators were always a vocal minority on campus. In the decades since the Vietnam War, student activism has generally been episodic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some people say, ‘Oh, they grew out of it, or they grew up.’ But I think, if we want to have a vibrant democracy, it’s not something you grow out of,” Gliner says. “It’s something you integrate into your day to day life, to be conscious of world events and to do something about problems that really bother you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran, now 69, speaks proudly of a lifetime of political activism. After he was expelled in 1967, he returned to San Jose State to earn a masters degree. He became a social worker and returned to San Jose State to teach in the School of Social Work, where he’s still an emeritus lecturer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, he’s written articles and opinion pieces for local papers and blogs. His interests range from current politics, like the presidency of \u003ca href=\"https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2017/07/28/18801101.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Donald Trump\u003c/a>, to the historical, like \u003ca href=\"https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2016/06/08/18787319.php#18786938\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this essay\u003c/a> on four San Jose women who attempted to block the loading of napalm bombs headed for Vietnam in 1966. Currently, Villagran is focused on highlighting the Latino history of the South Bay with a group called the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/LaRazaHistoricalSocietySCV/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">La Raza Historical Society of Santa Clara Valley\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villagran says he would like the university to mark the area where students angrily protested Dow Chemical with a monument outside the administration building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There should be something here like that. Right here. Because that’s where it all happened,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But my family is upset and I'm upset.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He told university police he always locked his door at night because he was scared of most of the other students living in the four-bedroom suite. He also didn't feel safe studying in his own room and believes his grades weren't as good as they could be as a result.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors decided to file the hate crime charge \"because of the bullying, the symbols of hatred in the room, as well as the fact he was the only person of color in the suite and he was the only one targeted,\" West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They gave him a racial nickname,\" West said. \"They continued to place a Confederate flag in the common area of the suite.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suite where the eight students lived included a common kitchen, two hallways, two bedrooms and two baths, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, the three students together barricaded the victim in his bedroom with furniture and other items to keep him in, attempted to lock him in a closet and took away his shoes, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also contributing to the atmosphere of a hate crime, this time anti-Semitism, the defendants kept a photo of Adolf Hitler and placed a swastika on the picture of a person in a magazine, according to West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also put a picture of a pentagram on a wall of the suite that the black student, who is a Christian, found offensive, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He was targeted because he was different, because he was black,\" West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All three of the defendants were 18 during the time of the incidents and the victim was still a juvenile at 17, although he has since turned 18, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/SJSU-Black-Student-Union/220209981360103\" target=\"_blank\">San Jose State Black Student Union\u003c/a> is calling for a rally on campus at noon today.\u003c/p>\n\n",

John Laws, spokesman for the San Jose State University police, said that after an investigation of a report they received on Oct. 14, the incidents \"appear to meet the criteria for a hate crime.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incidents reportedly took place in one the high-rise Campus Village Buildings housing university students on campus, Laws said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between Aug. 20 and Oct. 13 this year, the three defendants lived with the then 17-year-old black student, also a freshman, and four other white male students in an eight-person suite, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three defendants allegedly called their black roommate \"three-fifths\" and \"fraction\" and put up a Confederate flag in the campus suite they shared, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Three-fifths\" is a reference to the fraction the U.S. Census used to count black slaves in the South in the 18th and early 19th centuries for the purpose of representation in Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early September, the defendants are alleged to have placed a \"U\" shaped bike lock on his neck and refused to give him the key for five to 10 minutes before finally letting him out, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On another occasion, they tried to lock him in it again but he resisted and fought them and in the process bruised his lip, which led to the battery charge, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/crime-courts/ci_24566367/san-jose-state-students-charged-hate-crime\" target=\"_blank\">San Jose Mercury News\u003c/a> spoke to the student who is accusing the men of harassment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The freshman, now 18, said in a brief telephone interview that he's never experienced this kind of mistreatment, even though he was one of only a few black students at his high school in Santa Cruz. This newspaper is not naming him at his parents' request because of the ongoing campus investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm still in shock,\" he said, noting he tried not to spend much time in the suite and didn't report the situation to campus police in hopes the conduct would stop. \"I tried not to dwell on this. But my family is upset and I'm upset.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He told university police he always locked his door at night because he was scared of most of the other students living in the four-bedroom suite. He also didn't feel safe studying in his own room and believes his grades weren't as good as they could be as a result.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors decided to file the hate crime charge \"because of the bullying, the symbols of hatred in the room, as well as the fact he was the only person of color in the suite and he was the only one targeted,\" West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They gave him a racial nickname,\" West said. \"They continued to place a Confederate flag in the common area of the suite.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suite where the eight students lived included a common kitchen, two hallways, two bedrooms and two baths, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At one point, the three students together barricaded the victim in his bedroom with furniture and other items to keep him in, attempted to lock him in a closet and took away his shoes, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also contributing to the atmosphere of a hate crime, this time anti-Semitism, the defendants kept a photo of Adolf Hitler and placed a swastika on the picture of a person in a magazine, according to West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also put a picture of a pentagram on a wall of the suite that the black student, who is a Christian, found offensive, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He was targeted because he was different, because he was black,\" West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All three of the defendants were 18 during the time of the incidents and the victim was still a juvenile at 17, although he has since turned 18, West said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/SJSU-Black-Student-Union/220209981360103\" target=\"_blank\">San Jose State Black Student Union\u003c/a> is calling for a rally on campus at noon today.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
