I trust that under your leadership, you can maintain a low faculty-to-student ratio, which is crucial for enhancing the quality of education. Smaller class sizes foster a more personalized learning experience, allowing students to engage more deeply with the material and receive the individual attention they need to thrive. Berkeley doesn’t have to be a massive institution to be successful. Instead, its strength lies in offering an environment where every student has access to high-quality instruction and meaningful interactions with their professors. By keeping the faculty-to-student ratio low, you can ensure that Berkeley remains a place where education is not just delivered but truly experienced.

Accessibility? It's pretty poor 34 years post-ADA and even longer since Section 504 was signed. Chancellor Lyons should move on the UC Access Now Demandifesto Action Steps.
