Live web chat with President Yudof, this Friday, Nov. 2

Don’t miss your opportunity to communicate directly with UC President Mark Yudof, who will hold a live employee web chat on Friday, Nov. 2, 12 to 1 p.m. with Staff Advisors to the Regents Kevin Smith and Kathy Barton.

A central focus of the discussion will be UC’s financial future and how success or failure of Proposition 30, Gov. Jerry Brown’s November ballot initiative, could impact UC. Tune in live via UStream TV.

“With the upcoming election and so many critical issues facing UC and all of higher education,” Smith said, “we wanted to give employees a chance to speak directly with President Yudof.”

You are encouraged to submit questions during the web cast via UStream (see instructions below), but you may also submit questions directly to the staff advisors via this email link in advance of the event.
