KCBS Radio In DepthWhat can be done to solve the student housing crisis in California?The housing crisis is widespread in California and it has become especially dire for college students, as rents go ever higher and competition increases for whatever apartments are available.

We’ll start our conversation with Zennon Ulyate-Crow, third year student at UC Santa Cruz and founder and co-chair of the Student Homes Coalition - a student-led collective of hig...

Talk of the Bay with Bodie Shargel8/1/23: Heritage Trees with Cyndi Dawson, Gillian Greensite and Zennon Ulyate-CrowGuests Cyndi Dawson, Gillian Greensite and Zennon Ulyate-Crow, all deeply involved in the politics of development in the City of Santa Cruz, discuss heritage trees. This long-standing City ordinance requires residents to gain City approval to cut down certain large trees.
This conversation informs a larger one on the philosophy of environmentalism. As development and climate change are among the defining issues of our political era in Santa Cruz, progressives must reach an agreement on how to reconcile housing construction, green space and a reduction in CO2 emissions.
