Stories you shouldn’t miss:
1. BART has offered its police chief position to Kenton Rainey, a law enforcement veteran and former Fairfield police chief, the Chron reports. BART apparently hopes that Rainey, who is black, will help change the perception that the agency’s police engages in racial profiling.
2. UC Berkeley students ended their 10-day hunger strike after winning some minor concessions from Chancellor Robert Birgeneau, the Chron reports. Birgeneau indicated that students involved in the Wheeler Hall sit-in may be required to do community service rather than be suspended.
