Wheeler Hall

Despite being born and raised in the Bay for my entire life, I did not have my first chance to visit the UC Berkeley campus until I was 16.

Our campus has seen the construction of some of California’s most iconic and exemplary buildings — many of which still stand today.

At the annual UC Berkeley ASUC Mandatory Elections Meeting on Tuesday, members of the Elections Council rattled through election bylaws, campaign finance rules and more.

It is clear that UC Berkeley administrative leadership has much work to do regarding its response to COVID-19 and the many challenges it creates surrounding in-person instruction.

As UC Berkeley prepares to resume in-person instruction in the fall, several faculty members have raised concerns over poor ventilation in Dwinelle Hall and Wheeler Hall, posing questions about safety amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

UC Berkeley employees will be expected to return to on-site operations beginning July 12, according to an email sent Thursday by campus administrators.

UC Berkeley is home to more than 20 libraries sprawled across campus — large and small, known by many and known by few. When it comes to which is best, it’s difficult for Doe Memorial Library to not come out on top.

In a way, I’m stuck, afraid of all the bittersweet decisions I could possibly make — decisions that can sour with regret as fast as the spread of a virus.

A university experience, albeit in a less conventional space this year, is up for redefinition — and that doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

Consistently crowded, with people lining up outside on Sunday afternoons, the C.V. Starr East Asian Library, known colloquially as the East Asian Library, easily ranks among the top study spots on campus.
