Hey news from the UC system: UC San Diego sent campus police to arrest three academic workers on felony charges last night for writing messages in washable chalk and window markers at last month’s peaceful protests against contract violations. UCSD already slapped 59 workers with fraudulent student conduct charges after a previous peaceful protest, and since the strike last November many students and academic workers have faced unlawful retribution and found that their new contracts have not been honored. Pay has been withheld and rights have been violated. The UC system does not care about grad students and academic workers, and they will continue to prove it time and time again.

The student government at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) has failed to pass a resolution that would condemn antisemitism and apologize for endorsing a recent letter that accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing” and “apartheid.”

Last week’s vote followed nearly a month of recriminations touched off by UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla’s “unequivocal condemnation” on Oct. 10 of Hamas’ massacre of civilians in Israel three days earlier.

The campus group Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) responded to Khosla on Oct. 25 with a statement castigating the chancellor and claiming Israel is guilty of “war crimes,” “ethnic cleansing,” and “apartheid” against the Palestinians. SJP did not condemn Hamas, the Palestinian terrorist group whose brutal onslaught across southern Israel on Oct. 7 initiated the current conflict in Gaza.

UCSD’s Associated Students Council quickly endorsed the SJP letter. According to the campus newspaper the UCSD Guardian, however, “senators” on the council were pressured to do so.

“I don’t think that it’s fair to be mad at all of [the Associated Students Council] because [they] felt bullied into the statement that they endorsed last week, but you need to imagine how we feel now and just imagine how I’m still afraid to wear my Jewish star necklace,” one speaker reportedly said during the public input period of the meeting last week. “I implore you — please take care of the Jewish students in this community.”

In response to the student government’s endorsement, several council members proposed a resolution condemning antisemitism and apologizing for endorsing SJP’s statement.

Ultimately, the resolution failed to achieve a majority of “yes” votes, with six senators voting in favor of the resolution, 11 voting against it, and nine members abstaining.

During a public session held to discuss the resolution, tempers flared.

“This is not free speech. These are the words of those calling for violence against Jews. I’m a Jewish mother, and I am carrying a Jewish baby,” said one PhD student, according to the UCSD Guardian. “I am here today to state my condemnation for the behaviors and words of this group and for not notifying the Jewish community and Tritons for Israel of the last meeting.”

The campus newspaper noted that the student government is likely to reconsider the resolution at a future meeting with possible amendments.

In choosing to preserve its endorsement of SJP’s statement, the UCSD council joined dozens of college student groups that have declared solidarity with Hamas since Oct. 7 and blamed Israel for the terrorist group’s atrocities inflicted on Israelis.

“Just before the Fourth of July weekend, postdoctoral scholar Jessica Ng, graduate student William Schneider, and another graduate student at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), were arrested by campus police on charges of felony vandalism over $400 and conspiracy to commit a crime. They were arrested at their homes (where their personal items were confiscated including keys, phones and at least one computer), taken to San Diego county jails, and held overnight on $20,000 bail each.

Their crime? Allegedly writing slogans like “Living Wage Now” on a concrete campus building — in washable markers and chalk — during a peaceful protest almost a month earlier.”

Dear #Classof2023,

If you were a college freshman/rookie in 2019, you didn't complete your first year in-person as the world & life as we knew it changed on March 11th 2020 due to #COVID19. You spent all of the 2020-2021 school year online & portions of 2021-2022 (and likely some of 2022-2023).

Your first semester (Freshmen in Fall 2019) may have been your only 100% in-person Fall & your last semester (Seniors in Spring 2023) may have been your only 100% in-person Spring.

You overcame a once-in-a-century calamity to cross the stage as a college graduate - congrats on this accomplishment as a truly historic graduating class 👩🏻‍🎓🧑🏻‍🎓👨🏻‍🎓

P.S. I gave my first #Zoom lecture on March 11 2020 for my Statistics/SPSS students at California State University San Marcos

A New Role for RNA-Binding Protein in Asthma

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) were only discovered in the past decade, but are now known to be major contributors to widespread organ inflammation, including the lungs. Studies have shown they promote lung inflammation in asthma through cytokine production. Still, very little is known about how they are naturally suppressed.

In a new study published July 30, 2022 in Nature Communications, researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine found the RNA-binding protein RBM3 was increased in human and mouse ILCs during asthma conditions. The team further showed RBM3 was required for the intrinsic suppression of overactive ILC responses and lung inflammation, in a process partially dependent on cysteinyl leukotriene 1 receptor (CysLT1R).

Thus, authors said, RBM3 may be a potential therapeutic target and biomarker in asthma.

The study was led by first author Jana Badrani and senior author Taylor A. Doherty, MD, professor at UC San Diego School of Medicine and allergist/immunologist at UC San Diego Health.
