A few months ago, we began working closely with Assemblyman Levine regarding the move-in days for the University of California system falling on the High Holy Days.
Our efforts have paid off as UC President Robert Dynes has begun the process of changing the move-in days, which would have fallen on Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur.
“I’m pleased that President Dynes heard our message loud and clear and took action to prevent future conflicts,” Assemblymember Levine said. “Incoming Jewish freshmen should not be forced to choose between their religion and their first few days of college life. Moreover, it is not necessary that they choose. The UC’s action today proves that it is perfectly able to change its freshman residence hall move-in days to dates that would not conflict with the Jewish High Holy Days.”
