Waiting lists to be established at most UC campuses, regents say - Larry Gordon, LA times

The University of California will break with tradition and establish waiting lists for freshman admission as it copes with uncertain state funding, officials said Wednesday. UC has generally not used waiting lists in the past, and not all of its nine undergraduate campuses will do so this spring, administrators said during a UC Board of Regents meeting. But they predicted that most campuses would adopt the lists, at least to a limited extent, while university leaders decide whether to cut freshman enrollment for the fall.
