 Black Student Union demands $900k in new salaries, exclusive building for black students

Amounts likely totaling well over a million dollars

The Black Student Union at the University of California, Santa Barbara, is demanding well over one million dollars in new salaries and building costs, asking for eight new full-time positions at the university to support black students, as well as a “standalone building for Black students.”

The demands “build upon previous ones that Black Student Union…presented to the university, first in 1968 and again in 2012,” the student newspaper The Daily Nexus reports. They are meant to address “the university’s lack of effort to improve the conditions of black students on campus.”
