Radio Tower
Will Strengthen Network
Construction
was completed recently on a new 140-foot-high radio tower
near Building 25. According to project manager Chuck
Taberski, the free-standing all-steel tower will enable
the Lab to implement a new, stronger radio system in 2004
as mandated by the Federal Communications Commission.
The system serves facilities maintenance workers, Lab
security forces, and building managers, and is a central
component of the emergency preparedness plan. See this
Friday’s Currents for more details. |

University of Caifornia President Richard Atkinson, in
his monthly message to University of California employees,
praised the "impressive work, day in and day out,"
of faculty and staff in making the case for the state's
investments in UC. Introducing the Our University update
on the budget, Aktinson comments on the "extremely
difficult" state budget for 2003-04. "In addition,"
he says, "the budget includes legislative intent
language stating that UC can expect no funding for student
enrollment growth in 2004-05 – meaning that we face
the prospect of turning
away UC-eligible students for the first time in memory."

New
UC President Rallies
Skill At Forging Consensus

LA
JOLLA - Robert Dynes is about to assume one of academia's
most powerful positions. Some, including his wife, express
surprise that the internationally renowned scientist and
chancellor of UC San Diego would want to take on the University
of California presidency. When Dynes isn't running UC
San Diego, he's deep into his disheveled physics lab in
a quiet corner of campus researching the local oscillation
of electrons within a superconductor and other esoterica
that to nonscientists looks like chicken scratches on
his blackboard. As president, he will largely give up
the physics experiments he has squeezed into his chancellor's
schedule for seven years. Full
story. |

| Focus
Groups To Review
Benefits Communications
Focus
groups will be forming at each University of California campus
and the three Department of Energy laboratories to review
UC’s Human Resources and Benefits printed communication
materials and the At Your Service Website. Berkeley Lab’s
Benefits Office is seeking 15 to 20 volunteers to individually
review the materials and to share their opinions, suggestions
and recommendations with UC’s Office of the President.
Most of the review will occur via e-mail, but conference call(s)
and at least one “in-person” meeting also may be
involved. Interested participants should e-mail Stacy Greene
at [email protected]
by Friday, Aug. 15. |
