Good by Chancellor Vanderhoef

For all the cool stuff he seems to have done, the prick wouldn't even once come out to listen to us Halloween carol him.

I think that will always be my image of the man: someone so longing for bourgeoisie respectability that he completely ignored all the cool grass-roots stuff that the students were doing.

Then again: this same criticism was leveled at Clark Kerr. Kerr was one of the greatest Chancellor's in UC history, and helped build the entire system-- including the CACCs. Perhaps in time I'll come to appreciate all that Vanderhoef has done for my now-Alma Mater. In the mean time, I hope we'll be able to get rid of the sports teams he nearly single-handedly built.
