Regents to Form Group to Rework University Intolerance Plan
(Associated Press)
The University of California's Board of Regents say they will form a working group to rework the first draft of system-wide principles defining intolerance after Jewish students expressed outrage that it makes no mention of anti-Semitism.
Regent Monica Lozano said at a meeting Thursday at UC Irvine that the group will draft a "thoughtful and yet descriptive" statement. Two dozen people, mostly Jewish students, expressed concern that the proposed "Statement of Principles Against Intolerance" does not address anti-Semitic incidents on campuses.
