What will the Regents intolerance group do? No clue

No clue from yesterday's session at UCLA, at least from the two write-ups available:

University of California faculty members, students and activist groups expressed mixed opinions about modifying the Statements of Principles Against Intolerance at a UC Board of Regents forum Monday.
The Board of Regents tasked a group of regents, faculty members and administrators with modifying the Statements of Principles Against Intolerance. The working group held a five-hour public forum in the Covel Grand Horizon room Monday which drew about 90 commenters and 20 audience members...

The main thing we learn is that more people had something to say than came to hear it. Otherwise, the arguments offered were much the same as before.

We do learn from the LA Times account that the report of the group is due in March:
