The university and the union representing graduate student workers struck a deal to close the investigation without significant punishment for any of the dozens of students involved in the May demonstration
Direct action has long been a staple of labor activism, but University of California officials were less than appreciative when scores of demonstrating UC San Diego graduate students intervened in a long-planned and well-funded awards celebration last spring. By June, university officials said 67 students were facing punishment, up to and including expulsion, for their roles in interrupting the alumni awards ceremony and allegedly bumping Chancellor Pradeep Khosla and taking away his microphone.
The strike resulted in a new contract, but within months, the union members complained that UC officials were not meeting the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. In May, dozens of students disrupted the ceremony, going onto the stage during the event to criticize administrators. University police arrested at least three people, and school officials said the chancellor stumbled as students took away his microphone.
