DESCRIPTION:  Let customers know that the Cal apparel they are buying was made in a 
 sweatshop. Urge the UC  Berkeley administration to adopt the United 
 Students Against Sweatshops new campaign proposal.  Tuesday, November 15th  
 12 noon  ASUC Student Store, UC Berkeley  (Located on Upper Sproul Plaza at 
 Telegraph and Bancroft)  Contact: Lexa Grayner, Lexa903@berkeley.edu, (760) 
 519-7725  Overview of Designated Suppliers Program 
 (http://www.studentsagainstsweatshops.org)  University logo apparel goods 
 will be sourced from a set of designated supplier factories that have been 
 determined by universities to have affirmatively demonstrated full and 
 consistent respect for the rights of their employees. In addition to 
 respect for the standards currently embodied in university codes of 
 conduct, these factories will also be required to meet two additional 
 standards: demonstrable respect for rights of association – as evidenced 
 by the presence of a legitimate, representative union or other 
 representative employee body – and the payment of a livable wage. 
 University licensees will pay these factories prices for their products 
 sufficient to allow factories to achieve these standards, prices which will 
 represent modest increases over industry norms, and will be expected to 
 maintain the kind of long-term relationships with these factories necessary 
 to allow for a reasonable degree of financial stability and job security. 
 These factories will produce primarily or exclusively for the university 
 logo goods market. For the UC system, the uniforms purchased by the 
 university will also be sourced from the designated suppliers.  -- \n
