Cal students endorse withdrawal from PCC in 1959

The ASUC executive committee at Berkeley endorsed California leaving the Pacific Coast Conference effective July 1, 1959. The decision followed the athletic advisory board’s recommendation and aligns with the five point program standards for athletics. If California exits, UCLA would likely depart with sister institutions, possibly together with Southern California and Stanford. An upcoming Friday Regents meeting will review last week’s PCC actions and the board’s five point plan. The Academic Senate backed the Regents program, urging comparable admissions and academic standards, and fair treatment for athletes. The July 1 withdrawal date also aligns with UCLA’s probation end and PCC penalties from the previous year.
