Leadership Crisis The signs of University of California Berkeley’s relative decline are clear. In 2004, for example, the London-based Times Higher Education ranked UC Berkeley the second leading research university in the world, just behind Harvard; in 2009 that ranking had tumbled to 39th place. Source Forbes. Chancellor Birgeneau and Provost Breslauer continue to stonewall Operational Excellence (OE) from investigating and probing Cal's Chancellor, Provost and Vice-Chancellors.

Bear in mind the UCB Chancellor Birgeneau Loss of Credibility, Trust
The UCB budget gap has grown to $150 million, and still the Chancellor is spending money that isn't there on expensive ($3 million) consultants. $3 mil, that should be used for stdent classes. The Chancellor is using consultants to engage the Faculty and Academic Senate, The Chancellor has lost the credibility of his Faculty and Staff: he's lost his leadership of UCB. Do something!
