The increase in enrollment is (according to the college) compared to 2020 and 2021 which were lower due to COVID.

If you look into the group and what they have actually done it's pretty typical NIMBY shit dressed up in seemingly progressive language. Against the school building more facilities, stopping conversion of single-family homes into dorms, preserving "historic buildings." Typical stuff.

Well in that case, yeah thats whack.

But:

I'm not sure why it should be the college's problem? Those students could all just move to Berkeley anyway even if they don't get admitted. If the city wants to fight homelessness it needs to actually provide more low cost housing, not order a college to admit less people. Very simple solution. Weird that so few cities in America can figure it out.

Disagree with this. While I think cities can and should be concerned with building housing, I think private entities bringing thousands of out of town people in should have to consider the local area.

In this case, it appears they actually did though.
