Statement on the Resolution Concerning
Future Admissions, Employment and Contracting Policies
by Regent
S. Sue Johnson
On the agenda
for the Board of Regents' May 16th meeting at UC San Francisco is
Regents Item 28 by Regent Hopkinson. This agenda item is consistent
with my statement at the March Regents meeting, at which I expressed
confidence that action would be taken on SP-1 and SP-2 in the near
future.
Now that the time for action on SP-1 and
SP-2 has arrived, I wish to express my hope as chairman of the Board
of Regents that our members in their deliberations will form a consensus
for a course of action that will be in the best interests of the
university and the people of California.
I believe the resolution (RE-28) provides
such a consensus. It affirms the Regents' support of the state constitution
and our commitment to providing access to and maintaining the excellence
of the University of California.
