The Californians

To honor the way in which “The Californians” helped me see past California’s golden facade, here are a few reasons as to why this is the very best “SNL” skit.

We at the Clog know that life at UC Berkeley can get pretty serious, so we took it upon ourselves to compile a list of "SNL" sketches to bring some laughs into your dark world of midterms.

“I look forward to speaking to these young people who are on the verge of the next chapter of their lives and represent the future of our country,” U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris, D-California, said in a statement.

Maz Jobrani was so excited to be invited to give a speech at the campus’s spring 2017 commencement ceremony that he accepted the offer right away — but as the date approached, he “began to lose sleep.”

On a day to celebrate what has made and will make UC Berkeley such a unique place, Allah-Las provided the perfect soundtrack.

When UC Berkeley’s winter graduating class of 2016 gathers for commencement next month at Haas Pavilion, the campus hopes to add a little extra gold to the sea of students in blue and yellow.

Campus administration has announced that public policy professor Robert Reich will deliver the commencement address for the 2015 winter graduating class.

This is not a matter of free speech — Maher can iterate his beliefs on campus at a debate or club event.

When the exercise of free speech invokes hatred, we must stand up against that hatred.
