Science tends to be non political except in the voodoo sciences like today’s climatology. So why, normally, should a liberal care for science.

Why, when it's so Eurocentric, so linear and all? How many on any given school board in the country, let alone Berkeley, have a Bachelor of Science degree?

People in scientific fields still have their views and tend to express them, many of my profs did, though they're usually not going to be as radical as profs in depts such as humanities. My point was that the science/technical side of UC Berkeley is esteemed and well-recognized, and they may offer opposition to what is being proposed in Berkeley schools.
