“I wanted to do everything possible to avoid, or at the least minimize, repercussions for our [law] community once details would eventually materialize,” said Berkeley Dean Christopher Edley Jr. in a memo on July 24 to faculty and staff. Edley serves on the newly formed Commission on the Future of UC, which is recommending changes to the university system in light of the budget reductions. “With the support and creative thinking of managers and staff from every quarter of the law school, I believe we have been pretty successful in this effort,” he said.
