it is a faculty centered model. the way to change that up is to set expectations and goals for the universities, because we live in such a privileged position. u.s. governors have created public universities and colleges that live in privilege. we now need to begin an unbelievable assignment, and that is we are interested in educating the kids who come to the university and the college of the highest possible level, and the kids who come to the community colleges. it is advancing to a level of metrics that is off the charts, meaning we need goals that are really difficult to achieve. we also need, as i said in the earlier comments, to be free ,rom a bureaucratic control that these are institutions that free from certain control can deliver more, but they have to be held accountable. those are new models. what we were also hearing as money fromed more the legislature, more capital investment. that model cannot scale under any circumstance to the level of educational productivity required for us to prepare the populat

to broaden the idea of what a faculty member is. it is a concern. we publish a number of journals and have relationships with others that we distribute the books for. and those connections we have access in terms of cross promoting the valuable networks. >> it was happening in my tenure in la something like a third its size and that was a place we showed off our books and i can't be entirely despondent about it in my own experience because they directly intended the smaller conferences and societies. i found stability and resources for the offers and ideas into their loyalty. we were able to get journals, so i expect there's going to that o continue to be a vital part of the operation. looking at those wonderful publications thinking about how those that come about in the printing materials or are there other decisions about the design presentation and by one or if you can speak how you witnessed that evolution as it took place or how much you feel. it's who was doing the designing and if it's changed over the years. i'm not sure th

his faculty have assembled voting against him. they're going to chicago and meeting with the higher learning commission and urging this thing he acquired from the market that he's extending to extend the power of purdue university not be accredited. that is, and i'll say it, that's insanity to those of you on the purdue faculty. i'm just telling you. [ applause ] we did a program a few years ago. you'll hear from one of our graduates with the starbucks graduation. starbucks has more than 130,000 or 140,000 employees in the united states. half of them went to college and never finished. couldn't a great conscious capitalist corporation company like starbucks working with their partners work with a civic minded university to find a program to get a way to find people who had debt and a problem and couldn't solve the problem, would we figure out a way to graduate from college from a great university with no debt. we've graduated 1,000 people. we plan an graduating 25,000 for which we had to do brand control to maintain damage control

a faculty centric model.he way to change that up is to set expectations and goals for the universities that are -- because we live in such a privileged position. as governors you have created public universities and colleges that police in privilege. we now need to be given an unbelievable assignment and the assignment is, we're interested in you educating the kidded that come to the university and the college at the highest possible level, graduating kids at community college, which very few graduate. advancing to a level of metrics, that's off the charts. we need goals that are really difficult to achieve. we also need as i said in the earlier comments to be freed from bureaucratic control that -- these are institution that if freed from certain controls can deliver more but have to be held accountable and those are new models. what you'll hear from folks in washington or other places is that, well, what we really need is more money from the legislature. we really need more capital investment or more this o

tribute faculty member is. it certainly is a concern. we do certainly rely on our partnerships. and we publish published a number of journals. and other organizations. with them promoting a very valuable network for us certainly. it was something like a third of it. that has certainly shriveled. i can't be entirely despondent about it. they have attended the smaller conferences. with the smaller ones i found stability in the great source of authors and ideas. in their loyalty. because of the works with the books program. i expect that to be a great part. looking into that wonderful thing in the hallway out there. i was struck by the development of the appearance of books over the time and then i sensed that my 40 or 50 years. that a book from 1960 doesn't look like the book from 1980. as i was looking at all of that. how does that come about. was that driven by external factors. are there internal decisions about design and presentations. i wonder if you could all speak to how you personally witness that evolut

our faculty is the same size. that is a metamorphic transformation because out on we frontier, where we are, don't have a fixed idea of what we are supposed to be. most universities have become fixed ideas. that is work anymore, it worked very well, we have unbelievable achievements and it does mean ever one has to change. our 2025 balls are even more significant. 32,000 graduates, matching the diversity of our support -- society. men, women, ethnicity. no predictability based on family income for graduation. what is the key drive? new design. anyone of you as governor that are tempted to enhance the productivity of your universities by managing the present design, you will not be successful. this is particularly operating this cap. we all know definitively that for the 10-year-old child born into thousand eight, for that child, 60% of the jobs that child will have access to an answer the workforce, i don't mean this lightly, they do not exist. we don't even know what they will be called. all we know is that for t

there was a faculty member that was the head, the leading -- she was the faculty adviser for the newspaper. the newspaper ran an article about the protests and about racial discrimination, and president turner saw this article and didn't like it, and got mad with her for allowing it to be published. and he fired her, again, summarily. any students who participated in protests, he would summarily expel. finally, finally some students turned to some lawyers and challenged the president, and the case went to court. and because of earlier cases i mentioned, the united states district judge who presided over the case at trial ruled against the president and said listen, you can't just summarily expel students without a hearing or notice. you can't lay down a rule at a public institution and give yourself the power to examine the student newspaper before it is published and just kick out anybody who writes anything that you don't like. you just can't do that. you have to work within the federal constitution. one month after that decision came down, president turner resigned. now again, you say a

thesis from the faculty of history at the university of monster. the author nicholas leonhard sram is already under pressure as the meeting begins. one of the reasons is that he used the term lifestyle drug to describe consequence. that bitter is. of gattaca a lifestyle that made a couple of all the fish of victories this big deal it would serve it up to you about. a little over this car hit five in the garbage. also a bit of that all for thought does this all dead leave because an actor does. it all of us the evidence he does it's this big gift within us is this sort of mild over twenty thirty i my mind. nine. fingers you know i'm on an important part by the addition or a verse of one of her little ones move on as does the author might go on for three you know forty five. the author of the thesis was commissioned by the health minister to examine the role of the state government during the criminal trial against the manufacture of the frogger opposite of lung collected on this collector . this is an outrage mr urban for inviting us in can see the

where the target shifted from intimidating students to intimidating faculty. among the demands was the requirement that professors will be in danger of losing their jobs and nonten tour track faculty will lose tenure status if they perpetuate hate speech that threatens the safety of students of color. they will also be liable if the discriminatory attitudes behind the speech could potential i harm the academic achievements of students of color. this fall, reed colleges humanity's 110 course began with student demonstrations in the classroom which attacked assistant professor lucia martinez vel da via as a race traitor, anti-black, and ablist. driving val da via to admit that i'm scared to teach courses on race, gender or personality or texts that bring the issues up in any way. i'm at a loss as to how to begin to address it, especially since many of the students don't believe in historyisity or objective facts. the atmosphere was even more intimidating at reed when a guest speaker was shouted down with, bleep this sis white bitch. sis, being short hand, for si

you can see the faculty vehicles and the rest still in the parking lot. not a lot of activity around the school itself, just the police, the swat teams and all the rest as they work to secure this area. trace gallagher is getting new details in for us. he's with us. trace? >> yeah, shep. we're listening to scanner traffic here. that's not gospel, it's not confirmed. gives us a better idea what police are thinking as they approach the scene. you can see there, stoneman douglas high school, 3,200 students, three stories high and the scanner traffic is indicating there's a possibility that police are concerned that there might be a shooter up on the third floor, which is if you watch the police activity, gives you an idea of the way they're proceeding -- the way they are proceeding by getting the kids off the first two floors, as many as possible out of there. in the earlier minutes that we watched this, you can see the perimeter being set up and the police were against going up to the building and inside the building. in the past ten minutes, you've seen a

the harrowism, the composure of students and faculty saving so many lives, potentially. it's extraordinary. the fact that there had been so many drills, so many practices, red alarms. you and the leadership there are to really be congratulated. that said, i'm sure you and others are asking what did we overlook with this young man because his fellow students said they picked him out as the one kid most likely to be a shooter. >> i can't get into too many details. we have to protect the information and rights of our students. this student was removed. he was a former student. he was currently enrolled in the district at another facility. we received no warning scien ii about this tragedy. this was a student that had many challenges. again, we've got to provide more services. we only have our kids in school about two-thirds -- about one-third of their time. six hours s or so per day. that have issues that we know need to with addressed. again, that is going to require some real courage. is going to require our legislature and leaders to step i and finally do the right thing

matt. >> reporter: lucy you can imagine how gut wrenching it was for students and faculty to return toe of the people witnessed their colleagues or friends being murdered on this campus. today they had to return to it to finish out the school year. the district tells us that it is working with students and fact can you tee that say it's too emotionally difficult to continue the school year here and about 25 staff and students have asked to be relocated. we're also learning some new disturbing details as if there were more to discover about the shooting that day. reporting that the shooter tried to use a third floor stairwell as command post to fire down on students. he tried to use it as a vantage point and shoot out window but the window was hurricane proof. his gun jammed. he dropped it and fled. today governor scott is continuing his tour around the state of florida encouraging lawmakers to vote yes on his massive $500 -- $500 million action plan that would require anyone in possession avenue gun or purchasing a gun to be 21 years of age here in florida. lucy? >> all right, thank yo

in addition, many of our teacher and faculty live outside the bay. my violin teacher is concert master of the seattle symphony. she was chosen because she's phenomenal. and the conservatory commits to bringing in the top instructors. for them to have a space where they can reside when they come without having to look for a hotel means the world to us because we get more of our teachers' time. and it shows them that the conservatory cares. the conservatory really creates a safe space for all the students. it would be appreciated by the students. we're extremely excited by the project and hope to be a part of the community for a long time. thank you. >> president hillis: thank you. next speaker, please? >> i'm alicia sandova. i have been in communication with a number of tenants, rent-controlled tenants, who have been at 200 van ness. and my understanding is that they are going to be relocated temporarily for approximately two years. i just want to make sure that there is transparency in terms of -- if something comes up, if they have to wait longer th

it's why speak in faculty meetings and department chair meetings. it's why speak to individuals and on campuses. some people probably think i speak too much on the subject, maybe i do. i have to say and you have to say it as well. if what were concerned with the rising generation has no interest or respect for the first amendment, the constitution of the republic been fine, what is our task? is it to simon, to regret it and wish it was different? no. did her task is to speak ourselves. and where the airborne's and the pepper spray try to silence us to bear that burden into speak anyway. because that is what free people do. so i say to you is young person, from one who is not one young and years but i would like to say still retain some streaks of youth within, what us both joined together and speak and repeat over, over, and over again, those words for which we have filled national cemeteries, that we are endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights and that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. if that means you and
