LOL. Nobody reads articles anymore. That’s too damned hard. Just so much more fun to scan the header and then weigh in to the discussion with both feet firmly stuck in mouth. Our educational system. The gift that keeps on giving.

“”Based on current information available to the department,” the statement read, “the suspect is not a student at, or affiliate of, the university.”

Then why is a person on campus supporting, and being contributory to, violent acts against people there that were approved to be? It stands to reason there is much more than just the guy who did the support needs to be responsible.

If the security of the students is not being handled properly, then the university staff, clear up to the dean, is, thus, contributory by their failure to do their jobs. And trying to offset it by ignoring the fact it is their failure to do that job by trying to blame the person who did it they let get there, is just as discerning as the act.

He certainly looks like an intellectual. A future Attorney General of Calizuela, perhaps.

His twitter is restricted to confirmed followers and his page at Berkeley is also restricted.

I don’t know whether they were that way before he stuck his foot in his mouth.

These Fn liberal pansies are so brave when they outnumber conservatives. They keep pushing this crap and eventually they will pay and they won’t like it.

The campus is in downtown Berkeley. There are always many people on campus who are not students, faculty, or staff. This is a state university, and the public has plenty of access with no approval required.

The following comes from the BERKELEY CAMPUS REGULATIONS IMPLEMENTING UNIVERSITY POLICIES:

“(j) Guests or non-affiliates;

A “guest or non-affiliate” refers to a member of the public that is not affiliated with the University at the time of action or contact associated with these rules and regulations. If the guest/non-affiliate that engages in any of the below listed acts refuses to stop or leave University property, upon request, the person may be subject to immediate exclusion and/or criminal prosecution.”

The above regulation identifies Panda by way of the University as not being an employee so he was violating campus rules by being there. Just because they have not done enough about it in the past, trespassing on campus is defined in their rules and he should have been asked to vacate the premises or face prosecution.

I know the area well as I am from the Central Valley and have been to the city many times.

In the late 80’s early 90’s, I used to sponsor trips for the military to such facilities as the wine country in Napa, Fisherman’s Wharf, Golden Gate Park, the Alameda Coliseum and Candlestick, Great American, and we normally stopped at Spengler’s just down from the Berkeley campus to pick up fresh seafood to take back when we crossed back from San Francisco on either the Bay Bridge or San Mateo Bridge.

The Berkeley campus is not an open campus by it’s rules. Just because they fail to follow their own rules, is what I am complaining about. They are to blame also.

That sounds to me as though before the "guest/non-affiliate" is asked to leave, he is permitted on campus, without official approval. I don't recall any signs telling non-students/faculty/staff to keep out.

The problem with control at Berkeley is that there is over 1200 acres of campus. Some are off limits to many different types of people depending on what type of work is instructed there. Obviously you wouldn’t want some idiot getting into a chem lab and given the opportunity to harm himself or others. But because that problem exists, and the acreage is under the control of someone that I can’t seem to find, many areas are off limits to visitors. A lot of government research is done there.

An example is using the cyclotron, professors Glenn T. Seaborg, Edwin McMillan and colleagues produced plutonium starting in 1941. Plutonium is one of 16 elements to be discovered at UC Berkeley and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. This of course led to UC directing operation of the U.S. government laboratory at Los Alamos, New Mexico, incorporating work by Berkeley faculty and others to develop the atomic bomb. And in 1952, Hugh Bradner, a University of California, Berkeley, physicist invented the modern wet suit for government use. In that area, while working for Uncle Sugar Chemist Joel H. Hildebrand formulated a mixture of helium and oxygen for deep-sea diving, enabling divers to explore deeper into the sea than ever before, without experiencing “the bends.” It was originally developed for salvage operations for the military.

There is a problem with security on campus with these types of work going on like the current work being done. One of interest is a weapon being looked at by the feds where neuroscientists led by Jack Gallant are the first to use magnetic resonance imaging to reconstruct from brain waves what a person is seeing, opening the door to possibly watching other people’s dreams or visual memories. This work was started in 2011.

Think they have security on campus? Obviously. But no one knows where it is and it is the responsibility of the university to control areas and protect the students from outside problems. They are not doing their job.
