Greenberg was also "briefly" a non-degree seeking student at the school, a UC-Berkeley spokeswoman told Campus Reform.

Zachary Greenberg, who UC-Berkeley identified as the man who allegedly assaulted a conservative on campus, once worked for the college.

Greenberg worked for a period of less than three months as a lab assistant in the Department of Psychology, according to UC-Berkeley.

The University of California-Berkeley told Campus Reform that the man arrested for assaulting a conservative on campus is a former employee.

UC-Berkeley spokeswoman Diana Harvey said Friday after announcing the arrest of 28-year-old Zachary Greenberg on a felony assault charge that Greenberg was employed by UC-Berkeley from May 21-July 9, 2010 as a lab assistant in the Department of Psychology. Greenberg would have been college-aged at the time UC-Berkeley confirmed he worked for the college, so Campus Reform asked whether Greenberg was a student worker. Harvey did not specify in which capacity Greenberg worked for UC-Berkeley.

Harvey also said that Greenberg was once “briefly” a non-degree seeking student at UC-Berkeley.

This is a developing story. Updates will be added.

What you stand for is what defines you

Conservative students on college campuses are marginalized, threatened, and silenced by threatening students who oppose their views, or radicalized liberal professors or administrators. Campus Reform—and readers like you—are pushing back. Progressives would rather threaten you with violence, silence your conservative views, or call for you to be "canceled" from our society if you oppose them. They say your views are dangerous, hateful, fearful, or racist.

They have it all wrong. What we stand for defines us—it always has.

We can no longer remain silent. It is time for conservatives young and old to unite as a single voice to boldly proclaim what we stand for and oppose the mob.

Will you join with us, select the principles you stand for, and sign your name below?

I stand for the preservation of free speech all across our country—where I'm allowed to express my beliefs without fear of condemnation if my opinion differs from yours.

I stand for protections for conservative students who are illegally being threatened or silenced on college campuses all across our country.

I stand for the federal funding to be pulled from colleges and universities when they silence conservative views or students.
