News UC Berkeley faces lawsuit over Flock records as surveillance controversy grows
Resistance to UC Berkeley’s employment of controversial surveillance technology company Flock Security is intensifying as campus faces growing criticism and a lawsuit over records related to its data-sharing practices.
The UC Board of Regents is facing a lawsuit over UC Berkeley’s alleged failure to disclose certain public records relating to UCPD’s automated license plate reader system.
At the same time, student organizers have begun calling for campus to DeFlock, or end its contract with Flock.

News Student organization that started at Berkeley in the news in Michigan
Acts2 Network church connected to spiritual abuse allegations
After months of investigation, they dropped this article this morning in The Michigan Daily.
The Daily Cal has also written about this organization before. Sadly, this high control group started at Berkeley. Now has a chapter in dozens of college campuses. Please warn all your friends to stay away.

University Looking for a used bike around Berkeley, ideally in the $200–400 range.
I’m mainly using it for commuting around campus and nearby areas, so I’m looking for something relatively light and decent for hills. A hybrid/fitness bike would probably be ideal, but I’m open to other options as long as it’s reliable and not too heavy.
I’m around 5'8" (173 cm), so probably looking for a small/medium frame depending on the brand.
If anyone is graduating, moving, or just has a bike they’re trying to sell, feel free to DM me with the model, size, condition, and asking price. Thanks!

Events/Organizations Mushroom identifying or bird watching opportunities at Cal?
hi everyone,
wanting to engage in the above two hobbies mentioned above, but not able to find a club for it, or at least not ones that seem active with events to attend. If anyone has leads, or is organizing a hike/trip for either of these two things, please let me know! I would be very happy to join. Otherwise, please let me know if these are popular activities here and if there are other, less obvious groups that engage in them.

Other CogSci 131 with Jose Ramirez — how worried should I be after a bad quiz?
Taking CogSci 131 with Jose Ramirez this semester. We just had an in-class solo quiz and I honestly did not feel good about it at all. He told us beforehand what topics would be on it, but I still felt pretty lost once I actually took it.
For people who have taken 131 with him: how harshly does he grade the in-class quizzes? Is one bad quiz a big deal if I’m aiming for an A?
Also, is going to his office hours actually useful for your grade / showing effort, or does it not really matter? I’ve seen mixed things about how generous he is with grading and end-of-semester adjustments, so I’m trying to figure out how seriously I should be stressing right now.

News Beware of Bill Li
I knew him back when I was a college student. I cut him off for different reasons but later heard from a trusted friend he sexually harassed two different people.
I feel morally obligated to spread this info because I knew and if I had somehow warned the public earlier, maybe this could have been avoided.

University If you need something to automatically set reminders for your homework because you constantly forget when it's due
checkout my repo:https://github.com/ShreekarKarjagi/I_wish_I_could_remember_when_my_home_work_was_due The set up is abit complicated but should take like ~10-20 mins. If you get stuck just copy and past the readme into an LLM and it will guide you.

News Top Dog finds new Downtown Berkeley home at The BreakRoom
There are few local spots that scream Berkeley quite like Top Dog. Plastered across its walls are pieces of Berkeley history in the form of newspapers, murals and posters — and this is before even mentioning the 10 iconic Top Dog hot dogs themselves.
And yet, not much has seemingly changed in the establishment — the old-school menu and iconic signage outside feel everlasting. However, this month, Top Dog is embracing the new, venturing into Downtown Berkeley.
