What’s Berkeley’s current position with respect to the Solomon Amendment?

“Berkeley, for example, received $292.5 million in federal research funding in fiscal 2005 (60 percent of all sponsored funding for the year) - grant monies that would be terminated if the campus refused to provide access to military recruiters. That is a very persuasive penalty.”
