Rather fascinating. From architecture to Pat Brown and Tricky Dick, from bipartisan to partisan, from San Diego to LA to the Bay Area. And I haven’t even gotten to the arts section yet!

Just finished the UC chapter. As I spent the major part of my career working there, I was surprised to learn some history that is never mentioned. Guerilla theater took over the first UCSC commencement, proclaiming that protesting the Vietnam was was more important than curriculum. The audience was asked to stand in support of the Black Panthers, and most profs did. Clark Kerr said it was the worst day of his life.
