| With spring training just around the corner, UCI economist Michael McBride presents new metrics for player valuation based on team contributions, rather than individual skill - a system that inarguably denotes a team's most valuable player in any given inning, game, series, and/or season. |

"Relative to white officers, Black and Hispanic officers make far fewer stops and arrests, and they use force less often, especially against Black civilians. Female officers also use less force than males, a result that holds within all racial groups. These results suggest that diversity reforms can improve police treatment of minority communities." Findings from groundbreaking study on police accountability by UCI economist Bocar Ba in Science.

"The UC student population now mirrors the racial and ethnic demographics of our state. ... This diversity makes the UC a powerful engine of upward mobility and a potential brake on the trend toward deepening economic inequality. While the budget crunch brought on by the pandemic is not likely to reverse this positive demographic trajectory, we fear that it could lead our university to fail to deliver on the soaring hopes for social mobility that this progress has raised." UCI social sciences dean Bill Maurer and fellow deans from UCSB and UCSC explain via CalMatters.

| We are not your standard school. Like Peter, our beloved Anteater mascot, we're quirky and different. We're on a mission to create positive change in society, economies and human well-being by breaking down traditional barriers and pushing the limits in teaching, research and service. Doing so requires a different attitude, aim and set of actions.
