DAVIS, Calif. - The riot-clad police officer who pepper sprayed a row of peaceful Occupy Wall Street protesters at a California university last week is a retired U.S. Marine sergeant who has been honored for his police work on campus, but also has figured in a previous discrimination suit against the university. Lt. John Pike was hired onto the University of California, Davis police force in 2001. Now, as one of four lieutenants, he supervises more than one-third of the sworn officers on the suburban campus near Sacramento, including the investigations unit.

BERKELEY, Calif. - What started as a satirical bake sale against race-based admissions turned into a massive rally on university diversity and affirmative action programs Tuesday as hundreds crowded Sproul Plaza on the University of California, Berkeley campus. The event was spurred by a bake sale run by the campus' student Republican group, where baked goods were offered at varying prices based on the buyers' gender, race and ethnicity.

Beyond this, there is much to do in the broader public. This movement is not just about a victory for divestment at UC-Berkeley. Rather it is more fundamentally about spreading divestment and the notion that all nations and corporations, including sacred cows like Israel, must be held to account for their gross violations of human rights, and that all people, Palestinians included, are deserving of basic human rights such as rights to life, property, freedom of movement, and a right to an education. Similar measures recommending divestment from companies that provide military support for Israel have also been passed during the 2009-2010 school year by the University of Michigan-Dearborn, the University of Wisconsin, and the University of Sussex in the United Kingdom.

The University of California Student Association is the official student voice of more than 225,000 undergraduate, graduate and professional students to the state Legislature, UC Office of the President and the UC Board of Regents. Over the past summer, UCSA held its annual congress to choose a topic that directly affects the well-being of students in the UC system. After three days of deliberation, one of the main student concerns was to ensure that the UC is accessible and affordable for all California's families.

Despite the inability to override the veto due to changed votes from ASÜC members, ASUC Student Senator Emily Carlton said that the pro-divestment, crowd on campus and in California remains upbeat and satisfied with the attention the proposed bill brought to the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. The divestment saga drew international attention as well as coverage from many local California outlets including the popular Democracy Now! radio show. Carlton said that the show refused to cover the divestment issue until Smelko issued the veto. In other campus BDS news, UC-San Diego's student council voted 13-10-4 in favor of a similar bill on Wednesday night in favor of divestment, but a decision was delayed until next week after a meeting attended by "hundreds of students" ...
