campus safety resources, and the state department will bring together tech firms to address the best ways to handle anti-semitic content online. the new changes expand on the president's national strategy to counter anti-semitism that began a year ago. california's newest pro-palestinian encampment is at uc davis. students there set up tents yesterday morning, they sent the university a list of demands, including divestment, from israel. uc davis chancellor shared a statement saying the university is working with the protesters to avoid disruption to classes. >> police in southern california arrested at least 100 more pro-palestinian protesters across two different campuses yesterday. ucla couldn't even get through a full day of in-person classes without shutting down. the campus closed again after police arrested 44 protesters on suspicion of conspiracy to attempt burglary. ucla will stay with remote instruction for the rest of the week, the university says the lapd is committing a detective now to investigate the attack on

that protest. almost a week ago at uc san diego, officers in riot gear raided the encampment there for the first time. 64 people were arrested, 40 of them students who will be suspended. >> student protesters at san francisco state have similar demands to what we're seeing across the state and the country. when it comes to these protests, but yesterday we saw something that we haven't seen in other places. look at this. that's university president lynne mahoney sitting down and listening and talking to students in a public forum. hundreds of students gathered in a campus plaza to let the administration know what they think about all this, mahoney told protesters the school may consider avoiding investments in companies that are involved with war. however, she wouldn't agree to student demands that she call the war in gaza a genocide. >> and my job is actually to create the space for content neutral. that's that democratic

process again. so no, as a president of a university, i don't make political statements. i am very optimistic about how this conversation proceeded. >> we are, again, very thankful for president mahoney to come out and have this conversation with us. >> the protesters say yesterday's conversation made them hopeful they have no plans right now to pull down their encampment. stay with us for continuing coverage of the college campus protests in the bay area and nationwide. get the latest anytime at abc7 news.com. >> this morning, new concerns about autonomous cars on the streets. just as waymo is preparing to expand its fleet of self-driving cars down on the peninsula, this video is gaining a lot of traction online. it shows a waymo robotaxi here in san francisco driving in a lane not allowed to cars, then making an illegal left turn, industry experts say there are problems with the way testing is being done with these self-driving companies. >> we're seeing a lot of loose ends that the technology isn't quite there. the companies are

claiming it's safer, but things like driving the wrong way down the street, as long as there's no crash, they would say, don't count for unsafe. >> now others believe that if ai expands to self-learning within driverless cars instead of rule based learning, there could be huge improvements to safety. we have reached out to waymo for a comment on these concerns, but have yet to hear back. >> happening today in the east bay, the future of transportation will be on display at the redefining mobility summit bay area. state and federal officials are joining industry leaders to talk about the autonomous vehicle industry. it will include demonstrations from a number of companies like guideways, which we first introduced to you last year. they are working with contra costa county officials on a project which would connect pittsburg, antioch, brentwood and oakley with these tiny vehicles. the goal is to help people get from their homes to public transit like bart, without having to drive antioch mayor is expected at today's event to make an announcement, with the ceo of glide ways in

california department of education says sfusd will not be able to meet its financial obligations during the 2024 2025 fiscal year to address the issues, the chronicle reports that the state made an extreme move last week. two fiscal experts appointed a few years ago to guide the district were authorized to suspend or reverse financial decisions made by the superintendent or the school board. the district has been facing financial issues for years and in addition has been dealing with declining enrollment since the pandemic. that's resulted in less funding from the state. the school board was already working on a plan to stabilize its budget this month. the board is set to vote on finalizing hundreds of layoffs, and they've been considering school closures as well. superintendent matt wayne told the chronicle that he is confident the district will be able to meet its obligations. tonight's school board meeting starts at 630 at the district administrative offices in san francisco. live in the studio

mateo county. today, the county board of supervisors is talking about lowering the speed limit in dozens of school zones to 15 or 20mph. if approved, the county would study school zones in more than 20 districts over the next year and then make final recommendations. this comes after a statewide push to reduce school zone speeds that's currently moving through the state legislature. we continue to follow the controversy around the center running bike lane on san francisco's valencia street. it was meant to improve safety, but many in the area say it is just created frustration and confusion. residents and businesses have been asking for

changes, and amanda, we understand they're now getting the backing of the valencia street merchants association. >> yes, stephanie. the valencia street merchants association sent a letter to sfmta yesterday endorsing calls to replace the center bike lane. the group would like to see side running bike lanes restored to the street as soon as possible. it's the same request that's been made by others in recent months. they would also like to see parking restored and reduced parking meter costs for six months while the area is under construction. merchants on that stretch of valencia say since the current lane was installed, business has been decimated. in the letter, the association writes in part we have watched as dozens of our friends and neighbors have closed shop and know of a score more who are barely hanging on and likely to shutter in the coming months. as valencia represents the largest contiguous stretch of independent merchants in the nation, it occupies a special space in the city and is worth saving. the sfmta spokesperson

says. merchants have been meeting with the agency to find a solution that works for businesses and maintain safety in the corridor. an update for what comes next is expected this summer. back to you, stephanie. >> thanks, amanda. the bay area sports hall of fame has some new faces. the 2024 class was inducted last night at the hyatt regency here in san francisco. >> the emotions are still sinking in right now. it's so surreal. just to be mentioned with some of these legends. bay area means so much to me and that it was it was truly a special feeling. >> it's a great honor and i'm very excited to be here. >> pretty surreal. usually stuff like this doesn't happen to guys like me, but i really appreciate it. my rookie year when i came out here in 86, you know, walking back and forth through the airport, you see this display and i'm just walking by and i'm looking, i'm looking, i guess now when i come through the airport, i have to look for myself right. >> since the hall of fame was created back in 1979, nearly 200

bay area athletes have been honored. more than $4 million has been donated to more than 500 youth organizations across the region. >> cardi b never disappoints, especially at an event where fashion is the focus. so here's a rapper really taking over the floor, and as we zoom out, you're going to see what i mean in this organza gown that just goes on and on and on. in fact, it took nearly ten men to help cardi get this dress properly displayed. the theme this year was garden of time. you're going to see here kim kardashian, who kind of were the opposite of what cardi b wore, right? it's like there's not a lot to it. i still like it though. what's she getting read for this? >> i think people were expecting a little more from kim. okay, yeah. i mean, she looks beautiful. >> yeah. and it went to her. of course. holds us every year. who's that, who's that man? okay, well, this isn't basic, drew.

>> no, this is job. good job. >> yeah. also doing a great job. >> giving effort. it's giving. praying mantis carries is really simple, but i mean gorgeous. yeah so beautiful i like i really like that. that looks great. >> it's a timeless look. >> i want to show you something that just gets more interesting the more i find out about it. so this is a bay area tie because oscar winning actress da'vine joy randolph is rocking a custom gap denim gown. now look at the man to the right. is that zac posen? yes it is. yeah. yes. so the reason why that is relevant is because. did you know he lives in san francisco now? >> yes, he is now in charge. he is. >> he is the man in charge at gap for their looks or fashion. so this is the first time that we have seen him do something for gap. it's made of denim inside. it's international orange. we can't see the inside. but the reason it's international orange is because it's a nod to the golden gate

bridge, isn't that cool? >> so neat. >> yeah, it pops now and i feel like it would have popped even more in red or orange gold. >> here's the other thing about divine. >> yeah, and zendaya was a co-host. as we know, zendaya's from the east bay. divine in 2022. wanted so much to be at this event that she actually had a dress made for herself, even though she didn't have an invite. oh my god, it did a whole photo shoot manifest. getting one day going to the ball and look at her now i love that. >> yeah. she had you know, i really do. >> when would we see the international orange? that's what i'm trying to figure out. yeah, it was really hidden i guess when she went inside a part of the dress deconstructed, it came off. >> i haven't seen what it looked like when she went inside, but i think that's maybe when you would have seen it. >> i like that, that's really neat. >> also, zac, call us. we'll go for any reason. come on a show. hang out, make us a dress. >> i don't know, you might still

be sleeping in new york city right now. okay. it's been a long night. well, when you get home. no. >> when you take that united flight back. >> yeah, yeah. >> that's correct. every hour from newark. let's go outside. here's a live look. the exploratorium camera showing you it is a nice morning. that sun is just coming over the hillside right now. it is clear out there and we are in store for a warmer afternoon compared to yesterday. let's go. hour by hour. in future weather, we'll stop the clock here at 10 a.m. we're into the mid 50s for the most part around lunchtime. we're in the low and mid 60s, so it already feels quite pleasant out there. and then into the afternoon we'll go into the 70s. yesterday most of us stayed in the 60s for daytime. highs today were a bit warmer than that. and this is actually where we should be for this time of the year. so it's nice to be average sometimes when temperatures are in the mid 60s to the mid 70s we'll have plentiful sunshine for your sunset. here is at 806 this evening. we do have to talk about the winds though, because late tonight into early tomorrow morning we will have a bit of an offshore wind, especially through solano county, napa

county, sonoma county. but thankfully, since we had that rainfall this weekend, we don't have any elevated fire concerns underneath these winds. what these winds will do, it's going to keep those temperatures elevated overnight and into the early portions of tomorrow morning. so tonight, your overnight lows are fairly mild in the mid 50s to the low 60s thanks to that offshore wind. but this will create the launching pad to get us into an even warmer afternoon tomorrow. here's future tracker temperatures by wednesday afternoon, you could see more into the 70s and 80s for daytime highs. and then by thursday, we're in the mid 70s in the city, low 80s for oakland, mid 80s for the south bay. and then it gets even warmer here on friday. friday. that's when we do expect some of our cities to get into the low 90s. and that would be our first 90 degree days this season. so feeling a lot more like summer than spring by the end of the week. accuweather seven day forecast. lots of sunshine. we'll continue to warm our temperatures over

it makes significant cuts, and that reportedly includes an immediate hiring freeze. the school board has already been dealing with financial problems. in fact, they're set to finalize hundreds of layoffs this month, and they're also considering school closures. the district has lost about 10,000 students over the past ten years. in a statement last week, superintendent matt wayne said we are committed to accelerating our efforts to address the remaining concerns to ensure that san francisco public schools are places where students can learn, grow and thrive. and the chronicle reports that wayne will offer some kind of a roadmap at tonight's school board meeting. state advisers and other fiscal experts will also detail what they think the district needs to do. that meeting starts at 630 in the evening, live in the studio. gloria rodriguez, abc seven news. >> gloria, thank you. happening today, a rally by teachers in san lorenzo. they want higher salaries. the san lorenzo education association says the high cost of living is what's hurting the san lorenzo unified

school district when it comes to retaining and recruiting new teachers. they say the $24 million surplus in the district's budget next year could be used for salaries. the rally in march is happening from 4 to 5 p.m. in front of the san lorenzo unified school district office on usher street. >> if you've got a child that's getting close to going to college, the government really wants you to apply for financial aid. it's launching a $50 million program to get more students to compete for the federal financial aid application. the department of education says fafsa applications are at an all time low. it's partially because of problems with the overhaul of the system that's been plagued with problems. the new funding will go to organizations that work with schools and community groups to help people complete the forms. >> abc news sources say stormy daniels will take the stand today in the criminal trial of former president donald trump. trump is facing felony charges related to a 2016 hush money payment to daniels. prosecutors

argue trump falsified business records to hide the payment, which was made to keep daniels from speaking about an alleged affair the two had. trump has denied the claims. >> in another legal battle, trump's defense team has requested a delay in the classified documents case due to documents being disorganized. special counsel jack smith admitted that some of the documents are out of order, and various boxes the fbi retrieved from mar-a-lago. he says they've been reviewed multiple times, including one review requested by trump. the former president is now charged with mishandling national defense information at abc seven news. >> we take pride in our mission of building a better bay area. we celebrate the breakthroughs that are happening. antioch is looking back on a successful first year of its community response team and looking ahead to an expansion. the team was trained to deal with mental health and wellness check calls at an incident. they provide resource referrals, food and water. mayor lamar hernandez thorpe recently did a ride along. the hope is to make the

city safer without adding more police officers. >> some people love to see us. some people don't want to see a badge and a gun because they just know that's an authority figure. we come with the purple shortterm, you know, a little less aggressive. >> the mayor now wants to expand the program instead of just one van. he wants at least two, along with more trained staff. that would require around $2 million in funding. >> and another bay area breakthrough this morning, while the san francisco waits for the supreme court to determine if it can clear homeless encampments, the city is finding other ways to remove tents. the latest street count, taken last week, found 360 tents and structures across the city. that's a 41% decrease from last july, when there were more than 600 tents. san francisco has moved people who were living in encampments into shelters so far this year. >> i'm very encouraged by what this means for our city and looking forward to more momentum around getting people off the streets and getting them housed. but more importantly, not allowing those who refuse

service to continue to take over the streets of san francisco. >> so the survey also found there were no encampments with ten or more tents and only nine with five or more tents. >> part of building a better area is following up to make sure our local leaders are held accountable and giving them credit when they hold others accountable. this morning, we're focusing on san francisco city attorney david chu, who is now accusing a nonprofit of fraud. a man is tracking that story at the live desk. and amanda, the allegations include misusing money meant to help the homeless. >> yeah, reggie aqui fake invoices, collecting more than $100,000 led san francisco city attorney david chu to take action against providence foundation. it operates the oasis hotel, a shelter for families experiencing homelessness. the invoices were submitted in 2022 for painting the outside of the building and removing the deadbolt locks. there the city's attorney's office discovered that work was never done, he said. these

findings are just the beginning of their push for accountability. >> our action today, uh, starts the process to ensure that providence is not able to apply for future contracts. uh. it is up to the city as we're reviewing this and whether the current contracts would end. >> and abc7 news went to providence foundations offices for comment. staff closed their doors. providence received city funds to run a navigation center and multiple housing subsidy and voucher programs. for years, it has received grants through the city's department of homelessness and supportive housing. in a statement, the city's department said in part, h.s.h. will be reviewing each contract on a program by program basis to determine the best way to continue seamless services for the guests and tenants in these programs, the city attorney's office said. the investigation is ongoing, and they've apparently identified multiple nonprofits with questionable behavior. stephanie. thanks amanda.
