CHANCELLOR IRA HEYMAN The Class of 1983 will take with it some very special memories of its senior year at Cal. One of those has to be the victorious ending of the Big Game, a feat mainly of spirit. Another has to be Berkeley’s ranking as the nation’s top graduate cam- pus, based on the rating of the same faculty who teach undergraduates. That, too, is a feat of spirit, and of commitment to scholarly excellence, not only by faculty, but also staff, alumni, students and the State Government. To be judged with the great private universities and to be placed at the top is a matter of pride for us all here at Cal. And especially for the Class of 1983 in whose senior year this occurred. Berkeley is a very special place. Those of us who have been here for many years feel that strongly. So do many students, I find, and the feeling grows after they graduate. Maintaining that special quality — which is a wonderful mix of excellence and lively diversity — is entrusted not merely to faculty and staff, but to students, too, particularly after they become Alumni. Its physical setting enhances that, so there is only one Berkeley. — Chancellor Ira Michael Heyman

GOVERNOR GEORGE DEUKMEJIAN Governor George Deukmejian was elected to his present office in 1982. He is a former State Assemblyman from Long Beach, former State Senator, where he was Majority Leader, and, most recently, was the Attorney General of the State. As Governor, he is a member ex- officio of the Regents of the University of California. As chief executive, he prepares the state budget which, in part, affects the stu- dent budget. This function of his office has un- fortunately led to a rather maligned reputa- tion on campuses in the state by students fac- ed with misunderstood fee increases. The Blue and Gold wishes the Governor, a tough man in a tough job, all the best in his future years in office, working toward stu- dent government harmony. 20
