Stanford and UC Berkeley have met with opposition over which tech companies should be allowed to pay for access to campus resources and recruiting opportunities.
on campus last week, a recent graduate raised concerns to faculty and students of Berkeley’s Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences division via an email reviewed by BuzzFeed News.
“Berkeley is the home to many undocumented students who are an active target of these technologies and agencies. I would not be surprised if the idea that the EECS department is ‘hosting’ Palantir is experienced as highly uncomfortable and unsafe,” the email read.
A spokesperson for Berkeley said the email has so far received a minimal response, and that the scavenger hunt was part of a “broader effort to engage with companies who want to recruit our students.” “Palantir is one of 46 companies that have joined the EECS Corporate Access Program, which provides our students with in-person, direct engagement with recruiters and engineers from a wide variety of companies,” a department spokesperson said via email. “We do not restrict which companies may participate in the program.”Recruiters for tech companies have increasingly fielded ethical concerns from tech talent they’re trying to recruit.
