Welcome to the new academic year! We're so grateful to have such a vibrant community of @UCSFGradDiv students, as well as postdocs and staff, who care so deeply about science policy. 🥹 Can't wait to see where our policy interests take us this year!

[SPG at UCSF @SPGatUCSF]

What an amazing way to kick off the new academic year at our annual Welcome Picnic! We’re so excited to meet so many #scipol enthusiasts and we can’t wait to make everyone’s event ideas a reality!

@Erikacander @mattryesciguy @UAW5810 So cool!

[Erika Anderson @Erikacander]

My instrument isn't portable to the picket line, but I enjoyed representing @UAW5810 by playing Solidarity Forever on the Berkeley carillon tonight. #FairUCNow

All I want for Christmas is another overhyped billionaire publicly losing their shit

@igorbabywizzus @uhshanti Why do you say that? This chart demonstrates that more housing supply (more vacancies in free-market conditions) generally means more people will be housed. Prop M boosts supply in SF by adjusting market conditions to lower the vacancy rate.

If the UC system wants to attract high-caliber students and it needs to provide commensurate compensation. Why do they pretend that logic only applies to executives? I’ll see you on the picket line Monday morning.

It took Annie less than a day to find a new partner after her mate of five years was struck by a car. What is her secret

[CalFalconCam @CalFalconCam]

When a mated Peregrine dies during the breeding season, the most likely outcome of the nest is abandonment. In rare cases, a new mate can come in, establish a bond with the remaining individual, and adopt the chicks. It is *possible* that we are witnessing this right now.

[CalFalconCam @CalFalconCam]

We are all deeply saddened to report that Grinnell was found dead in downtown Berkeley this afternoon. We are devastated and heartbroken.

His cause of death isn't known, but he was probably struck by a car given where we found him.
