THANK YOU.

>>> DOZENS OF GRADUATE STUDENTS ARE FACING POTENTIAL EXPULSION.

THE UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR CLAIMS A GROUP OF STUDENT WORKERS ASSAULTED HIM.

THE ALLEGATIONS COME FROM A DEEP-ROOTED CONTRACT DISPUTE THAT LED TO A QUESTIONABLE DEMONSTRATION LAST MONTH.

>> IN DECEMBER WE SIGNED A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT WITH THE UNIVERSITY.

>> Reporter: A GROUP OF UC SAN DIEGO GRADUATE STUDENT WORKERS WAS DETERMINED TO BE HEARD BY THE CHANCELLOR.

CELL PHONE VIDEO SHOWS WHAT HAPPENED AT THIS ALUMNI EVENT ON MAY FIFTH AT THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART IN LA JOLLA.

ALEX WENZEL IS A STUDENT RESEARCHER WHO WAS THERE TO DOCUMENT WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A PEACEFUL PROTEST.

THE GROUP ALLEGES THE UNIVERSITY HAS REFUSED TO IMPLEMENT NEW CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS FOR THOUSANDS OF GRADUATE AND POSTGRADUATE EMPLOYEES.

>> EVERYTHING THAT I SAW FROM MY POSITION IN THE AUDIENCE INDICATED THAT IT WAS A PEACEFUL ACTION.

THE CHANCELLOR DID STAND UP ON STAGE.

HE EVENTUALLY DECIDED OF HIS OWN ACCORD TO LEAVE.

ALLEGATIONS HE WAS PUSHED OFF THE STAGE OR ANYTHING OF THAT NATURE ARE NOT TRUE OR BORNE OUT IN THE VIDEO.

>> Reporter: ADMINISTRATORS DO NOT SEE IT THAT WAY.

THE OFFICE OF STUDENT CONDUCT HAS LAUNCHED INVESTIGATIONS INTO HIS ACTIONS AND THE ACTIONS OF 66 OTHER STUDENT EMPLOYEES WHO SUPPORTED THE DEMONSTRATION.

THAT INCLUDES THESE STUDENTS WHO ARE UNION STEWARDS WITH THE 2865 LOCAL WHICH REPRESENTED STUDENT WORKERS IN THEIR CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS AND EVENTUAL CONTRACT RATIFICATION LAST DECEMBER.

>> I THINK THE ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO TARGET US AND SCARE US INTO SILENCE.

THEY DO NOT WANT TO FIX THE ISSUE SO THEY THINK THAT BRINGING THESE CHARGES AGAINST US WE ARE GOING TO BE SCARED AND WILL NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO ORGANIZE TO FIX THE ISSUE.

>> Reporter: THE INCIDENT TRIGGERED CHARGES FROM THE OFFICE OF STUDENT CONDUCT AGAINST THE GROUP, CLAIMING PHYSICAL ASSAULT, THREATENING THE HELP, OBSTRUCTION OF UNIVERSITY ACTIVITIES.

>> I THOUGHT IT WAS A MISTAKE.

I THOUGHT THAT SURELY SOMEBODY MADE A TYPO BUT ABSOLUTELY.

THERE WAS NO CONTACT OF ANY KIND , CERTAINLY NOT PHYSICAL ASSAULT.

THERE'S NO INVOLVEMENT A POLICE.

UCSD IS BASICALLY THE PROSECUTOR AND JUDGE.

>> Reporter: WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE IS THAT WHATEVER HAPPENED HERE, IT WAS JUST ONE OF SEVERAL ONGOING DISAGREEMENTS BETWEEN ADMINISTRATION AND STUDENT WORKERS.

AT THE HEART OF IT ALL IS THE INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT APPROVED BY BOTH SIDES.

THE CHANCELLOR HAS NOT COMMENTED ABOUT THE INCIDENT AT THE UNIVERSITY COMMUNICATION DEPARTMENT GIVE US A STATEMENT THAT SAYS IN PART, IF UNIONS OR INDIVIDUAL UNION MEMBERS BELIEVE THAT THE UNIVERSITY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH ITS CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS, COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENTS ESTABLISH ORDERLY PROCESSES TO FILE GRIEVANCES AND HAVE THEM ADJUDICATED.

CALCULATED DISRUPTION OF OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BUSINESS IS NEVER APPROPRIATE.

TONIGHT THE INTERPRETATION OF THIS EVENT IS STILL UNDER THE INVESTIGATION.

>>> COMMUNITY MEMBERS FILLED A HIGH SCHOOL AUDITORIUM TO HEAR THE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT PLAN OF CARLSBAD PLAN FOR EQUITY AND INCLUSION.

THE VOTE DID NOT HAPPEN.

TANIA THORNE SAID THAT DID NOT STOP PEOPLE FROM WEIGHING IN ON THE ISSUE.

>> Reporter: THE AUDITORIUM OF SAGE CREEK HIGH SCHOOL IN CARLSBAD WAS PACKED ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT AHEAD OF A CONTENTIOUS SCHOOL BOARD MEETING.

ADOPTION OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICE DIVERSITY EQUITY INCLUSION AND BELONGING PLAN WAS ON THE AGENDA.

THE BOARD PRESIDENT WAS NOT AT THE MEETING SO THE BOAT WAS POSTPONED.

THAT DID NOT STOP DOZENS OF PEOPLE FROM SPEAKING BOTH IN FAVOR AND AGAINST THE DISTRICT OFFICE PLAN.

>> WE SUPPORT EDUCATION, NOT INDOCTRINATION.

THIS IS JUST A NEW LANGUAGE FOR CRITICAL RACE THEORY AGENDA.

>> THIS IS NOT DIVISIVE.

IT'S NOT CRT.

IT SUPPORTED BY THE NATIONAL PTA , BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION BECAUSE THEY ARE IN IT FOR THE CHILDREN NOT ALL OF THIS OTHER CRAZINESS.

THEY ARE THERE TO MAKE SURE OUR STUDENTS ARE EDUCATED, WELL- ROUNDED, AND READY TO MOVE ON TO A DIVERSE FUTURE.

>> DE I IS FAILING WORLDWIDE.

INDUSTRIES AND COMPANIES THAT HAVE EMBRACED EEI ARE FAILING.

COMPANIES LIKE DISNEY, VICTORIA'S SECRET, TARGET, NETFLIX, BUD LIGHT JUST TO NAME A FEW ARE LOSING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS, HAVE FIRED CEOS AND THE DI STAFF.

WHY SET OUR CHILDREN UP FOR FAILURE?

>> REJECTING THIS PLAN AND BUDGET BASED ON RELIGIOUS BELIEFS OR BIAS AGAINST LGBTQ PLUS INDIVIDUALS OR ANY OTHER HISTORICALLY MARGINALIZED GROUP WILL BE SEENáARE MANDATORY.

>> Reporter: WHILE NO CURRICULUM WAS PRESENTED DURING THE MEETING A PRESENTATION SHOWED THAT THE PLAN WOULD BE PHASED OUT OVER THREE YEARS.

THE FIRST YEAR TO INCLUDE REVIEWING POLICIES AND TRAINING STAFF AT AN INITIAL COST OF $85,000.

>> THE LARGE BULK OF THE COST IS AROUND STAFF TRAINING, I BELIEVE.

THERE IS SOME STUDENT TRAINING ONCE THE GROUPS ARE IDENTIFIED WITH A LARGE BULK IS AROUND STEM STAFF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT THEY WOULD DO THROUGH THE COURSE OF THE FIRST YEAR.

>> Reporter: DISTRICT STAFF SAID THEY HOPE TO LAUNCH A WEBSITE THAT WOULD HOST INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND COMMUNITY NUMBERS TO VIEW.

A VOTE ON ADOPTION OF THE PLAN WAS NOT SCHEDULED BUT IS EXPECTED TO HAPPEN AT A LATER MEETING WHEN ALL BOARD MEMBERS ARE PRESENT.

TANIA THORNE, KPBS NEWS.

>>> EARLIER THIS WEEK WE REPORTED ON TRAFFIC CALMING MEASURES THE CITY WAS PLANNING TO INSTALL IN PACIFIC BEACH.

ANDREW BOWEN SAID THE CITY HAS ABRUPTLY PUT THE PROJECT ON HOLD.

>> Reporter: A WEEK AGO THE CITY PUT OUT A PRESS RELEASE ANNOUNCING DIAMOND STREET AND PACIFIC BEACH WOULD BE GETTING TRAFFIC DIVERTERS THAT TWO INTERSECTIONS.

THEY CAN IMPROVE SAFETY BY REDUCING CUT THROUGH TRAFFIC ON WYATT STREETS.

DAYS AFTER THE ANNOUNCEMENT THE CITY REVERSED COURSE AND HALTED THE PROJECT INDEFINITELY.

RYAN STOCK OF THE NONPROFIT BEAUTIFUL PB SAID HE IS DISAPPOINTED.

>> WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TWO INTERSECTIONS WHERE YOU CAN NO LONGER TAKE A LEFT TURN IN A PRIVATE VEHICLE.

THAT IS IT.

THAT'S THE BARE MINIMUM YOU CAN DO TO ENCOURAGE MORE BIKING AND RUNNING AND OTHER USERS OF THE STREET.

>> Reporter: A COUNCILMEMBER TOLD US HE ASKED FOR A DELAY AFTER MEETING WITH THE PROJECT OPPONENTS ON TUESDAY.

SOME OF THEM THREATENED TO LAY DOWN ON THE STREET TO STOP THE INSTALLATION FROM HAPPENING.

HE SAID THE OPPOSITION TO TRAFFIC CALMING ON DIAMOND STREET IS NOT NEW.

THE STREET HAS HAD TEMPORARY TRAFFIC MEASURES FOR THREE YEARS.

>> WE HAVE MADE SO MUCH PROGRESS.

WE'VE HAD SO MANY DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THIS.

RIGHT AT THE LAST MINUTE THIS VERY SMALL COALITION OF PEOPLE FEELS THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO JUST DICTATE THAT NO CHANGES CAN BE MADE TO THEIR CITY.

>> Reporter: THE COUNCILMEMBER HAS A MEETING WITH CITY STAFF ON FRIDAY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PROJECT.

THE CITY DECLINED TO SAY WHEN OR IF THE PROJECT WOULD ULTIMATELY MOVE FORWARD.

>>> THERE ARE STREETLIGHTS AROUND SAN DIEGO THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH CAMERAS TO RECORD HER MOVEMENTS.

THEY ARE NOT BEING USED RIGHT NOW DUE TO PRIVACY CONCERNS.

THOMAS FUDGE PREVIOUS A MEETING TONIGHT AT CITY HALL TO DECIDE WHETHER THE CAMERAS SHOULD ONCE AGAIN BE USED TO COMBAT CRIME.

>> Reporter: CAMERAS ON STREETLIGHTS LIKE THIS ARE ABLE TO RECORD MOVEMENTS BENEATH AND AROUND THEM.

SAN DIEGO POLICE SAY THEY ARE A VALUABLE ASSET TO DETECT AND DETER CRIME.

POLICE HAVE COME UP WITH AN UPDATED PLAN TO USE THEM.

MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPECTED TO SPEAK AGAINST THE PLAN WHEN IT IS PRESENTED TONIGHT BEFORE THE PRIVACY ADVISORY BOARD.

PRIVACY ADVOCATES SAY THEY DO NOT CLAIM THEY CAN STOP THE USE OF CAMERAS IN PUBLIC PLACES.

>> THE TECHNOLOGY IS COMING AND IT'S COMING IN LARGE QUANTITIES.

IT WILL BE COMING OUT AS FAST.

THE PERSPECTIVE OF OUR REP REPORT IS WHEN IT COMES THE POLICE DEPARTMENT NEEDS TO DO A THOROUGH JOB OF EXPLAINING HOW THEY ARE GOING TO PUT CONTROLS ON IT TO USE IT PROPERLY.

>> Reporter: CRITICS OF THE POLICE POLICY ON USING STREETLIGHT CAMERAS SAY IT DOES VERY LITTLE TO ASSURE RESIDENTS THAT THEIR PRIVACY RIGHTS WILL BE PROTECTED.

FOR INSTANCE, THE CAMERAS DO HAVE THE ABILITY TO LOOK INTO PEOPLE'S PRIVATE SPACES.

HE SAYS POLICE ARE BASICALLY SAYING WE SHOULD JUST TRUST THAT THEY WILL NOT DO THAT.

>> IT WAS SHORT AND EXTREMELY LACKING IN DETAIL.

IT WAS NOT THOROUGH.

IT PASSES ON VERY FEW PROTECTIONS TO SANDY AKINS AND OVERALL IT IS DEFICIENT.

>> Reporter: A SPOKESMAN FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT SAID THESE CAMERAS WILL NOT BE PEERING INTO PEOPLE'S WINDOWS.

THERE'S NO EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY IN PUBLIC PLACES.

HE TOLD US THAT THIS TECHNOLOGY HAS ALREADY BEEN PROVED TO BE A VALUABLE TOOL IN PROSECUTING SIGNIFICANT CRIMES.

IF A CRIME OCCURS WE WANT TO SEE JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS OF CRIMES.

POLICY HAS A LOT OF PROTECTIONS.

IN 2020 THE SAN DIEGO MAYOR SHUT OFF THE CAMERAS IN THE FACE OF CRITICISM.

WHEN THEY MEET THIS EVENING THEY CAN BE EXPECTED TO RECOMMEND OR NOT RECOMMEND THE POLICY FOR USING THE CAMERAS AGAIN.

ULTIMATELY THE DECISION ON WHETHER TO USE THE CAMERAS WILL BE UP TO THE CITY COUNCIL.

>>> PEOPLE MAY SOON SEE AN INCREASE IN THEIR WATER BILL.

THE WATER AUTHORITY VOTED TO RAISE RATES BY 9.5% IN 2024.

THE GENERAL MANAGER SAID THE INCREASE IS DUE TO LARGE ENERGY BILLS AND EXTREME INFLATION DRIVING UP THE COST OF EVERYTHING INCLUDING STEEL, CHEMICALS, AND OTHER MATERIALS.

OCEANSIDE RESIDENT SHELLEY PARKER SAID MANY SENIORS ARE STRUGGLING TO PAY FOR ESSENTIALS.

>> THESE PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING INTO A POSITION WHERE THEY HAVE TO APPLY FOR RELIEF WORK THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.

PEOPLE ARE GOING WITHOUT FOOD.

>> WATER RATES PAID BY RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES WILL ALSO VARY.

>>> A SAD UPDATE IN THE SEARCH FOR A MISSING SUBMARINE AND THE FIVE PEOPLE INSIDE.

THE COAST GUARD CONFIRMED THAT DEBRIS FOUND ON THE OCEAN FLOOR NEAR THE TITANIC IS FROM THE OCEANGATE SUBMERSIBLE TITAN.

IT LOST CONTACT WITH THE SURFACE SHIP NEARLY 2 HOURS AFTER IT DOVE ON SUNDAY.

>> Reporter: THE WORST FEARS OF MANY WERE CONFIRMED TO THE SEARCH FOR A MISSING SUBMERSIBLE THURSDAY.

>> THIS MORNING A REMOTE OPERATED VEHICLE FROM THE VESSEL HORIZON ARCTIC DISCOVERED THE TAIL CONE OF THE TITANS SUBMERSIBLE APPROXIMATELY 1600 FEET FROM THE BOW OF THE TITANIC ON THE SEAFLOOR.

THE ROP SUBSEQUENTLY FOUND ADDITIONAL DEBRIS.

IN CONSULTATION WITH EXPERTS FROM WITHIN THE UNIFIED COMMAND, THE DEBRIS IS CONSISTENT WITH A CATASTROPHIC LOSS OF PRESSURE.

UPON THIS DETERMINATION, WE IMMEDIATELY NOTIFIED THE FAMILY'S.

>> Reporter: LOST ABOARD THE MISSING SUB STOCKTON RUSHED, THE CEO OF OCEANGATE.

FRENCH RESEARCHER PAUL-HENRI NARGEOLET WHO HAS BEEN TO THE REC MORE THAN THREE DOZEN TIMES.

>> Reporter: THE MISSION NOW CHANGES TO RECOVERING THE TITAN AND BRINGING CLOSURE TO THE FAMILIES AND COLLEAGUES OF THOSE WHO WERE ABOARD.

>>> THE HOUSE ETHICS COMMITTEE IS SET TO REVIEW A CENSURE RESOLUTION AGAINST CALIFORNIA DEMOCRAT ADAM SCHIFF INVOLVING HIS ROLE IN THE FIRST IMPEACHMENT OF FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE RUSSIA PROBE.

IT COMES AS REPUBLICANS PLAN A POTENTIAL IMPEACHMENT OF THEIR OWN.

>> Reporter: REPRESENTATIVE ADAM SCHIFF SET A RARE PARTYLINE VOTE TO CENSURE HIM YESTERDAY SHOWS HE DID THE RIGHT THING.

IT IS OVER HIS ROLE IN THE FIRST IMPEACHMENT OF FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND THE RUSSIA PROBE.

>> THREATENING NATIONAL SECURITY, UNDERMINING OUR TO LEAVE ELECTED PRESIDENT AND BRINGING DISHONOR ON THE INSTITUTION.

>> Reporter: HE SAID THAT IS FALSE AND DEFAMATORY.

>> THIS IS TRUMP WORLD GOING AFTER SOMEONE THEY THINK IS EFFECTIVE IN STANDING UP TO THEM.

>> Reporter: THE RESOLUTION REFERS THE MATTER TO THE HOUSE ETHICS COMMITTEE DESPITE DEMOCRAT OBJECTIONS.

>> THEY HAVE TURNED IT INTO A PUPPET SHOW.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

THE PUPPETEER DONALD TRUMP IS SHINING A LIGHT ON THE STRINGS.

>> Reporter: THE TIMING OF THE RESOLUTION IS NOTABLE.

SOME REPUBLICANS WANT TO VOTE ON IMPEACHING PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN THIS SAME WEEK.

THE IRONY IS NOT LOST ON HOUSE SPEAKER KEVIN McCARTHY WHO IS TRYING TO DISSUADE THEM.

>> WE ARE GOING TO CENSURE ADAM SCHIFF FOR LYING TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC AND YOU WANT TO TURN AROUND AND DO THE SAME THING.

>> THE GOP CONTROLLED SENATE ACQUITTED TRUMP IN 2020.

THOSE CHARGES INCLUDED ABUSE OF POWER AND OBSTRUCTION OF CONGRESS.

THEY DID SO AGAIN AFTER THE HOUSE CHARGED WITH INCITING THE CAPITAL MAC RIOT.

>>> SEVERAL CELEBRATIONS ARE PLANNED ACROSS THE COUNTY FOR THE FOURTH OF JULY.

THE TRADITION HAS BEEN ON HIATUS DUE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC.

THE SHOW WAS ORGANIZED BY A NONPROFIT OF THE SAME NAME.

WHAT MAKES THEIR CELEBRATION UNIQUE FROM OTHERS IS THAT IT IS FUNDED ENTIRELY BY LOCAL SPONSORS AND COMMUNITY DONATIONS.

IT'S A PLACE WHERE EVERYONE IN MIRA MESA AND SURROUNDING AREAS CAN GET TOGETHER WITHOUT HAVING TO DRIVE DOWN TO THE BAY OR ANYWHERE OUTSIDE THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
