On behalf of the UC Berkeley community, I want to congratulate and welcome James Milliken to the University of California family. James clearly has a wealth of valuable experience and expertise which will serve us well during a time of challenge and change. I look forward to.
The UC Board of Regents has approved James B. Milliken as the 22nd president of the University of California system. A proven higher ed leader and chancellor of the @utsystem, Milliken brings a deep commitment to values that make UC a model for the nation.

A few months back I posted a pic of Berkeley’s University House backyard. Here’s how it looked yesterday. Jen and I are grateful.

Superstar leadership. Thanks Rep. Simon. I look forward to working together.
Proud to be able to see my friend @richlyons, the @UCBerkeley Chancellor today. Last week, I toured campus and got to see firsthand the lifesaving work labs are doing with NIH funds. I told him we're going to fight to protect all UC researchers and labs from any cuts. Go Bears!
