At midnight, the ASUC Senate members voted in favor of upholding President Vishalli Loomba’s Executive Order voiding the V.O.I.C.E Initiative. The initiative asked students if they would pay $2 per semester to help sustain the Daily Cal, but has been voided due to its violation of UC policy. Loomba promises to work with the [...]
In the early hours of this morning, it was announced that ASUC President Vishalli Loomba had issued an Executive Order voiding the V.O.I.C.E Initiative, the $2 student fee referendum to support The Daily Californian, on the 2012 ASUC general election ballot.

Walking down Sproul nowadays, I’m sure many of you have noticed the multitude of new signs and interesting gimmicks. Students walk around in front of Sproul Hall and Golden Bear Café holding signs with the blown-up faces of Senate or Executive candidates for the 2012-2013 positions for the Associated Students of the University of California [...]
Get to know the candidates behind the flyers, signs, chalk scribbles, and announcements. Caliber has conducted interviews with as many candidates as we can reach and filmed short interviews with each of them. Every video contains an introduction to the candidates’ platforms and three random and personal questions.
