Paul Ortiz, a high-profile labor rights expert at UC Santa Cruz who is widely known for championing affordable faculty housing and campus diversity, is leaving the university for a job in Florida.

The 43-year-old associate professor of community studies at Oakes College said the decision to leave was “agonizing” because “there are no better students in the country”

Ortiz, who left Duke University in 2001 to join UCSC, said he would direct an oral history program at the University of Florida beginning next August.”*
