8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
The staff of the Daily Californian, Berkeley's student newspaper, reached a compromise yesterday with the university's governing board which had demanded the ouster of three senior editors because of an editorial calling for the retaking of the People's Park.
The Daily Cal agreed to replace the senior editors with next year's editors-four months ahead of schedule. However, the former editors will continue to write for the newspaper.
Meanwhile, the staff is pushing for total independence from the university, which claims ownership of the newspaper. The university owns the land and contributed $18,000 this year toward the annual budget of $250,000.
Editors estimate that $40,000 is needed for the initial capital investment in a new off-campus office and facilities. However, the Daily Cal now has no capital because it has not made a profit in the past ten years.
