Margaret Rhea Seddon ’70 came to Cal in 1965 from Murfreesboro, Tennessee. It was an eye-opening, and liberating, experience for the Southern belle. As she recalls in her 2016 memoir, Go for Orbit: “While students at traditional colleges worried about the football team and dates, I worried about throatburning tear gas raining down from police helicopters or rounding a corner on campus to come face-to-face with National Guard troops in riot gear. Amidst the turmoil, however, new ways of thinking were developing. It was becoming more acceptable for women to plan careers, even unconventional ones.” For her part, Rhea Seddon went on to become an ER doctor, then an astronaut—part of the same NASA class as Sally Ride. As a veteran of three space shuttle missions, Seddon has orbited Earth nearly 500 times.

The International Space Station (ISS) has been circling Earth for nearly 21 years, but Leroy Chiao ’83, veteran of three space shuttle missions and former commander of the ISS, still remembers when, as he told the New York Times Magazine last year, “it had that new car smell.” Chiao, who retired from NASA in 2005, now heads up a speakers bureau called OneOrbit, makes regular media appearances, and tweets under the handle @AstroDude. Chiao, who also speaks Mandarin, learned Russian in order to communicate with the cosmonauts with whom he lived aboard the space station for several months. In 2019, he participated in an Oxford Union debate, arguing for the motion,“The Future Is In Space.” Chiao insisted that eliminating space flight programs would not only be detrimental, but would also plunge the world into a “death spiral.” Ever wondered what it sounds like on Mars?

Jason Achilles

Mezilis ’96 is with you. The L.A. rock musician/producer designed and built a microphone for NASA’s Perseverance Rover, made to withstand the harsh conditions of our planetary cousin. After the rover touched down in February, Mezilis’s microphone recorded the sound of gusting wind on the Red Planet and beamed the audio file back to Earth. When it comes to the music scene, Mezili has done it all—performing, producing, and recording under the name Jason Achilles. Designing this microphone was an unlikely odyssey for Mezilis, one that grew out of his friendship with a Jet Propulsion Laboratory engineer and which turned him into what Wired magazine called “a bona fide extraterrestrial audio engineer (a space roadie, if you like).”

Asad Aboobaker

’00 has moxie. Or, at least, he’s working on bringing it to Mars. MOXIE, which stands for Mars Oxygen InSitu Resource Utilization Experiment, has a simple goal: take the atmospheric carbon dioxide of Mars and turn it into oxygen, the eventual source material for rocket fuel and, of course, astronaut-breathable air. Aboobaker, an instrument systems engineer for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory since 2014, graduated from Berkeley with bachelor’s degrees in physics and astrophysics before getting his doctorate in physics at Princeton. In his NASA bio, Aboobaker hints at the roots of his love for all things interstellar: “If you find yourself staring in awe at a star-filled night sky or marveling at rocket launch videos, you might be a space nerd like me.”

Steve Barajas ’10, a mechanical engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, spearheaded construction of the Perseverance test model and played a key role in the design of the Mars rover’s chassis. After designs of the test model proved themselves satisfactory, Barajas hopped aboard the Assembly, Test, and Launch Operations Mechanical team, following the actual Perseverance Rover through further shakedowns (e.g., spin tests, shake tests, and various other trials), until it was ready to face the harsh conditions of the final frontier. What triggered Barajas’s space enthusiasm? A book about space his parents gave him in third grade. He pored over it, falling in love with the stars and their planets. Now, he’s part of that story.

The first Korean in space, Soyeon Yi, MBA ’14, came to Cal in 2010, after her stint aboard the ISS in 2008. Yi, who also has a doctorate in biotechnology from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, carried 1,000 fruit flies aboard the Soyuz rocket that ferried her to the ISS and proceeded to observe the effects of space on the flies’ behavior and genome. On Yi’s return to Earth her space capsule malfunctioned, landing some 300 miles off target, in a remote part of Kazakhstan, startling local inhabitants. “The nomads were surprised when Yuri [Malenchenko, the Russian flight engineer] climbed out of the capsule,” Yi told Korean television. “They very well would have been, since a ball of fire fell from the sky and then a white object crawled out of it.” — C.P.

Graduating undergraduate Alumni Scholars from The Achievement Award Program (TAAP) join our new Class of 2021 alumni.

DIRECTOR’S CHAIR In May of 2020, 17-year-old Darnella Frazier saw police activity and then saw a man in pain.

She stopped, pulled out her cell phone, and began recording. During the trial, Frazier expressed, “When I think of George Floyd, I see my father, my brothers, my cousin, my uncle. They are all Black. It could have been them.”

I write this after the Minneapolis jury convicted a local police officer in Floyd’s death. As a wife, mother, aunt, and grandmother of Black boys and men, I live in fear for their safety. This fear doesn’t go away, though I was a peace officer, former assistant district attorney, police commissioner, and one who understands the dynamics of excessive force. I have seen law enforcement officers put their lives on the line to protect our communities, and I have seen law enforcement officers represent the worst of what humanity has to offer.

This year has been particularly painful for our communities of color. Fueled by anti-Asian scapegoating, a surge in violent crimes continues to cause fear and anguish in our Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities. We must stand up against racism in all its forms—and we must create space so that the voices of those marginalized can be heard.

I am hopeful as I look to the Class of 2021, and to our graduating scholars from The Achievement Award Program (TAAP), who embody a deep commitment to serving others. We are honored to share reflections from TAAP scholars Pedro De Anza Plascencia ’21 and Yuner Lu ’21 on the following pages.

The Cal Alumni Association launched Alumni Making a Difference, a virtual series of conversations between campus leaders and alumni navigating constant uncertainty and pain. The conversations highlight how service to others can bring about change and help with our own healing. Our mission, now, is the true work of healing: to protect the vulnerable, serve those in need, and shine the light of hope on our path forward.

Each of us has a role to play. Each of us can, and must, be the light that casts out darkness. In the first episode of Alumni Making a Difference, Dacher Keltner, faculty director of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley, gives voice to our charge: “We need all of our alumni to keep building our strength and our place in the world.”

TO OUR CHILDHOOD SELVES, THE POWER OF OUR FUTURE

Pedro De Anda Plascencia and Yuner Lu are both Achievement Award Program (TAAP) Scholars in UC Berkeley’s Class of 2021. Below are excerpts from speeches the graduates delivered at this spring's TAAP Senior Brunch.

Dear FifthGrade Pedro,

I want to begin by telling you that I love you. You are valid, and you are worthy of love and protection. While your friends are on the playground with their fresh sneakers, talking about the latest version of Call of Duty—you are in your head, trying to search for the right De Anda Plascencia ’21 now holds English video game language, and political science degrees. to make sure you are not othered. I want you to know that the emotions you are feeling inside are fine. They’re more than fine; they’re yours and they’re real. I want you to know that being gay is not bad. Do not feel ashamed as you play Barbies in the living room with your sisters, as your parents work long hours in swap meets, trying to make ends meet, struggling to make sure that you and your sisters can have your dollar to go to the corner store to get your bag of hot cheetos. These experiences will become our identity; there’s so much in store and so much to be proud of.

There are many things I wish I could tell 10-year-old Pedro. I was processing my immigrant status, my queerness, and being in a low-income family, all of which I would later understand to be my intersectionality. I imagine it’s common for many fifth graders to have to care for their younger sisters, but I’m not sure how many fifth graders also have to worry about obtaining US residency; I did. The hope that our immediate family would not be separated by a stranger lingered over me. They had no clue how every morning I woke up to my mom bringing me warm choco milk; it was the only life I knew. Why would someone want to take that away? This is when I learned that not everyone had the same privilege my sister and I were granted when we gained US residency. I promised myself, from that point forward, I would do everything in my power to be ambitious with my dreams.

I worked hard in school and worked hard to be the best sibling and son I could be. I stayed focused on growing myself academically and as a leader. Upon arriving at my UC Berkeley Unit 3 double, I was confronted with the reality that life away from my mom and her choco milk would be harder than I had anticipated. In my first year, I made about 23 calls to my mom daily, because it was hard to be ripped from the one who meant everything to me, and those calls were the only thing that made me feel like she was by my side.

I think about the first time I stepped foot on campus. I think about entering that Southwest airplane as I made my way to Senior Weekend. I think about wide-eyed Pedro, so fascinated and enamored with the magnitude of Berkeley and the opportunities that awaited me, where I would eventually explore my dreams, my authentic self, and become the unapologetic Pedro that was once only a fixation of my fifth-grade imagination.

I will be graduating with two degrees in English and political science, and it really took a village. I am in awe of the women in my life who have built me, supported me, and held me up when I could not sustain myself emotionally or financially.

One of my fondest memories from this year is planning Senior Weekend for the incoming Class of 2025, engaging with newly admitted students of color! As I leave Berkeley, I am content with what I have accomplished, both inside and outside of the classroom. From the Dean’s List to being a Raices intern, a SLC writing tutor, the Latinx-endorsed ASUC Senator, and presently the bridges outreach director, I am humbled by what I have done and eager for what is to come. To the donors, alumni, and families who support our program: Thank you. Your financial contributions to our program are investments in our dreams and a reminder that community across lived experiences is what will push us forward into a brighter and collective future. As for what’s next? Postundergrad, I will be moving to Sacramento, where I will intern for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund with the goal of getting into law school and starting my own family. Fifth-grade Pedro, I feel like we are doing just fine, if you ask me. <3

Sincerely, Pedro

Campaigning for ASUC Senator.

My name is Yuner Lu. I’m a senior studying electrical engineering and computer science at Cal, and I am honored to share my UC Berkeley journey with you. 2020 was a challenging year. The pandemic took many lives worldwide. As students at Cal, we have been confined to our homes in front of computers instead of being on campus. What I realized while quarantining for more than a year was the privilege I hold as a student at UC Berkeley, and how this privilege inspires me to push for social change. Even before quarantine, I knew Cal was not going to be an easy ride. Entering Cal in Fall 2019 as a transfer student, I was able to verify all the stories I had heard about how competitive Cal is, especially in computer science. I had to adjust and adapt, to prioritize my grades over everything else.

Yuner Lu ’21 now holds In quarantine, I came to the realization that there is a visible a degree in electrical wall between me and my peers. Class policies changed and engineering and exceptions were made, but the difficulty of my classes didn’t computer science. change. I stayed in my room as I feared catching the virus. Hours, days, and weeks passed silently as I spent almost all waking hours in front of screens. It was deeply isolating, and life became meaningless at one point.

But we each found a way to cope. For me, it was through a class: Engineering, the Environment, and Society. The issues of inequality we discussed in class played out in front of us. Essential workers had to constantly expose themselves to the threat of the virus. People of color were getting infected and dying in numbers disproportionate to their population. I realized that despite my emotional obstacles, I was lucky to not have to risk my life daily.

“ What I realized while quarantining for more than a year was the privilege I hold as a student at

UC Berkeley, and how this privilege inspires me to push for social change.”

Lu’s engineering class provided a coping strategy during the pandemic year.

Through my class project, I was given a way to make a positive impact by working with a nonprofit, Communities for a Better Environment. Our branch fought for environmental justice and social equity for POC communities in East Oakland who are contending with fumes, particulate matters, and other forms of pollutants created by factories and crematoriums. Our team of four students worked with this nonprofit to create a web app that helps residents and volunteers search for the permits of businesses in their area to see if they are abiding by government regulations. After that, I joined the Social Good committee of my student club, Data Science Society of Berkeley, and continued to work with nonprofits. Through these experiences, I realized my ability to impact underserved communities.

Today, I want to ask you to continue serving your community and uplifting each other. Although I have gone through difficulties as an immigrant living on my own, and had to support myself financially before I transferred, I am blessed to have had access to resources for success at Cal.

I want to thank the Cal Alumni Association for helping us realize our dreams during a time that brought isolation and pain. As graduates from Cal, we have the power to make a positive impact on our society.

Thank you.

I didn’t play a sport until 2012, when I picked up my first hammer.

in the process. Like, how are we going to be able to get back to doing what we love? But in one of the conversations I had with my coach, when the NCAA ended up canceling the season and then other national bodies started pulling out of the Olympics, he told me, “All of this— everything that’s happening right now—is going to end. It will end. Even though we don’t know when right now, it will end. And when it does, we need to be prepared for anything that comes next.” Training at home was really nice, but I missed my team, and I especially missed my coach. Most of the time I was out there alone, or my parents were able to come out and film me so I could see what sort of progress I was making. There were moments where it was really hard, but keeping my goal in mind and my eyes on the prize kept me going. I repeated my coach’s words like a mantra: “This is going to end. We need to be prepared.” I think that hoping there would be some light at the end of the tunnel but not knowing when it would come meant that I did everything I could to be ready for it when it arrived. Training definitely had to change a bit to suit the circumstances. Normally, we would be practicing in a certain way until indoors was over, around mid-March, and then we would transition into hammer throw in the spring and summer part of the season. Not knowing when that transition was coming—it felt a little bit like “just-in-case training.” We were still working on building that foundation, but always doing a little bit to be ready just in case they suddenly said, “Hey, we’re going to be Camryn Rogers ’21 able to have a meet in a month.” I think that sort of prepAs told to Katherine Blesie aration training was good because it teaches you to be flexible and adaptable. But it was hard, too, at least for me, to know that I was training for this thing that might never happen.

I showed up to my school’s track practice late—I When they announced that the Olympics were going to be postponed, I was wasn’t even going to go—and I went to the back area of heartbroken, of course. I was able to talk to a lot of other Canadian athletes and the track where there was this rusty cage, and the coach, Olympians to see how they were handling everything. I wanted to know: What Richard, pointed to a hammer and said, “Okay, throw were these more experienced competitors doing? What can I learn from them? that.” I said, “Excuse me, what is that? It looks like a What have they learned along the way? Most of them ended up saying the same murder weapon!” I picked it up, swung it around a couple thing: You just have to be prepared, and you just have to be flexible because times like he showed me, said a quick prayer, and let it nothing will ever go perfectly. You can’t predict everything. go. And he kind of looked at me and crossed his arms I hit a new lifetime best a few weeks ago when I was in Oregon, and I think and pursed his lips and said, “Okay, I think we can work that’s partially thanks to the time during lockdown to go out on my own and really with that.” work on those little parts of my throw that were inhibiting me.

That was my introduction to the sport, because ham- It makes me so excited to think that there’s still more to come—even if I mer isn’t really a sport where you go to your parents and achieve this one goal of qualifying for the Olympics this year, there are still so say, “Hey, my friends and I are going to go throw ham- many goals that need to be met, so many throws to be taken. There’s always mers after school.” I think when you have the chance to more you can do to get to that next level. It’s a long road but one that I’m very, be exposed to such an interesting event you have to take very, very pumped to be taking. it. I did, and I fell in love with it.

When I went home last March, I planned to stay for To see Camryn Rogers in action, watch our short film, “The Dragonfly the weekend and ended up staying for seven months. and the Hammer.” https://alumni.berkeley.edu/california-magazine/ I think a lot of people, myself included, kind of got lost watch-dragonfly-and-hammer
