Tom Campbell wants LA and Berkeley to cost as much as Stanford

Sure. One particularly peer research university would be…none other than Berkeley itself!. For example, Berkeley’s Computer Science 61A course - the gateway course of the CS and EECS majors - is being taught this fall by none other than Brian Harvey, who is a lecturer. Many of the CS61x series courses used to be taught by Mike Clancy, who is a lecturer. (Clancy now teaches mostly CS3 while serving as the general teaching coordinator for all lower-division CS courses).

I took CS61A the summer before I entered college. I think the reference book, Simply Scheme, was written by Brian Harvey. The TA told us that book is used at MIT as well.
He’s hardly a random lecturer. Most lecturers at Berkeley are way more impressive than tenure profs at my LAC.</p>
