to get inside. it was initially thought it was a people's park protest because it was the 55th anniversary of the founding of the park, but it merged into a pro-palestinian protest. recent demonstrators have been protesting the public university system's financial involvement in military and pro-israeli causes. abc seven talked to people on both sides of this issue. >> i didn't take over the building, but we are resisting with palestinian who are the bravest, strongest and most tenacious resisters i ever heard of. >> they seem to parrot the narratives that are given to them and only want to focus in searly on on gaza when their own backyard has problems. i mean, they took our park, we have homelessness all throughout california. we have, i mean, the issues of our modern world are endless that are local, but none of these people are local, and none of these people seem to

care about the local issues. all they care about is gaza and overseas and the university officially says it is a crime scene, different than civil disobedience or nonviolent political protests. >> it's still unclear if arrests will be made and if the building will be cleared of. protesters live in the studio. gloria rodriguez, abc seven news thank you, gloria. >> we are waiting to see if protesters interrupt the uc board of regents meeting for a second day in a row yesterday. the meeting had to be paused after protesters began yelling at board members over the listen to our voices. >> so the second warning. you're welcome to observe the meeting should you continue to disrupt, we will have to recess and have the police clear the auditorium, this is the final warning. and if and we will clear the room until you divest. >> this is not a threat. >> the yelling happened at several points of that meeting, which is being held at uc merced after that final warning, the

regents asked the california highway patrol officers to step in and lead the protesters out. the regents have said they have no plans to divest from military or israeli supporting assets. >> the union that represents uc grad students and academic workers voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike over the ucs response to protests. this vote doesn't guarantee a strike will happen, but the union is demanding the uc system divest, and they're upset with how they feel. uc officials interfered with its members right to protest. this means union leadership can call for a work stoppage at any point. classes and research could face major disruptions, as many of these institutions wrap up the school year. >> police cleared an encampment on uc irvine's campus, arresting several pro-palestinian protesters after they barricaded and occupied a university building. there were some small clashes as officers moved in and corralled those demonstrators. you can see some of that chaos here. police say some of the

through the altamont pass for those of course heading westbound, the speeds are down to 12mph because the slowdown begins at 205. let's get back to your headlines. >> thank you. amanda new this morning. what will be a major key in helping to get humanitarian aid into gaza is almost ready. according to u.s. central command, a floating pier built by the u.s. military has been moved from the port where it was built, to a beach in gaza, about 30 miles away. trucks are expected to start moving that aid ashore in the coming days. the united nations and world food program will distribute it. >> the effort to get new humanitarian aid into gaza is happening, as we are seeing more protests over the war between israel and hamas here at home at uc berkeley this morning, protesters are now occupying a vacant building near campus. abc seven news reporter gloria rodriguez is here with the details and the new video of these protesters, who apparently spent the night there. >> they did, reggie, and they're still out there right now. this comes a day after a compromise was reached to disband the encampment on campus. and our photographer, stefan stifter,

just sent us this video. it shows the encampment still up at uc's alumni hall. this is just off campus, and you can see signs up there right now. a group of pro-palestinian activists took over the abandoned building that's owned by uc berkeley yesterday, and graffiti now covers parts of the building. uc berkeley police say some in the group hopped fences and even broke windows to get inside. it was initially thought that it was a people's park protest because it was the 55th anniversary of the founding of the park, but it merged into a pro-palestinian protest and protesters set up camp after a large encampment in sproul plaza on campus was taken down. recently, demonstrators have been protesting the public university system's financial involvement in military and pro-israeli causes. now, alumni hall is across the street from people's park. you can see the map right there. it has been sitting empty since a fire two years ago, and the university says this is a crime scene

different than civil disobedience or nonviolent political protests. it's unclear if arrests will be made and if the building will be cleared of protesters live in the studio. gloria rodriguez, abc seven news thank you, gloria. >> san francisco state university students protesting the war in gaza are cleaning up their encampment. the protesters reached an agreement with university leadership two weeks after they first set up that encampment. overall students say administrators met three of their four demands. >> we have received a commitment to divest from weapons manufacturer to disclose clear accounts of where sfsu is investing its money, and to publicly defend our right to protest. >> students say they plan to keep a presence on campus as they push for definitive change. in response to the students, university president lynn mahoney released a statement saying, quote, i remain appreciative of the peaceful protests that have allowed all of our students to complete their semesters without interruption. and of this work to better align our investment strategies with our values. >> at sonoma state university,

the school's president is on administrative leave. following an email he sent out to the campus community. the chancellor of csu says mike lee sent a campus wide message concerning an agreement with protesters without first getting the, quote, appropriate approvals. in the memo, lee said the school would disclose university vendor contracts and seek divestment strategies. the campus encampment has now been taken down, school officials tell abc seven news that organizers agreed to move out last night. we're hearing from the ceo of the jewish community relations council, bay area. the group agrees with that decision to put sonoma state's president on leave, and they say they have greater concerns about the calls to divest. >> we don't think that it's fair , right, to single out a country we can disagree with the government of the country just like ours, but to boycott it, to delegitimize its people, to stop doing academic exchanges with it, we think is deeply problematic and alienates the

jewish community. and so we felt compelled with our la and statewide partners to send a letter to the leadership to make sure that they understood how detrimental this would be for our community. >> that letter reads in part, quote, the civil rights of jewish students and faculty are not a bargaining chip that can be used to quell campus unrest. these negotiations and subsequent concessions counter the spirit of higher education, are in direct violation of california state law, are not in line with anti-discrimination policies and statements, provide no assurances, and incentivize students to violate university policies. >> happening today, we're going to find out how much cal money cal money. excuse me. ucla has to pay uc berkeley the board of regents are set to vote on a final agreement and it will likely be $10 million a year for three years. yesterday regents rejected the original recommendations of $10 million a year for six years. all of this stems from the bruins leaving the pac 12 for the big ten back in 2022. ucla agreed to pay cal

as a condition of their exit to make up for that financial impact to cal's athletic program in the south bay. >> major cuts could be coming to the county of santa clara. amanda. the county needs to slash $250 million to balance their budgets. so what's the plan. >> well reggie they've got some proposals on the table, but the formal plan and budget hearings won't start for a month. county executive james r williams is proposing some serious cuts. they include eliminating jobs that are still unfilled in many departments. the county may also increase building permit fees. williams admits the proposals may be difficult. >> i don't relish the fact that i've had to bring to the board a budget that includes cuts at a time when there's extraordinary needs in our community, and we have worked hard to try to minimize those impacts, but the impacts are there nonetheless. >> now, this isn't a done deal. after the formal budget hearings begin next month, a balanced
