<p>Interesting reading the comments of the UCSD students. They break down as:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>The largest ethnic group at UCSD is Asian, then they ought to get the Lunar New Year off.</p></li>
<li><p>The Armenian and Russian Orthodox Christmas is now during the first week of winter quarter. What about them? </p></li>
<li><p>Two weeks isn’t enough of a Christmas/New Years break for those who live out of state.</p></li>
<li><p>Why not just start two weeks earlier, accommodate the HHD, but still have the longer Christmas/New Year’s break.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>I think the UC Regents have opened up a sticky wicket here. They don’t seem to be acting in a neutral fashion but instead favoring the HHD over the Asian Lunar New Year and the Greek Orthodox Christmas.</p>
