As a graduate of Berkeley, I'm well aware of the colloquial use of the term "labs". However, that is not the way the Chancellor is using it in her statements.

She means the more standard definition of "places where there is equipment for students and professors to use for research".

She is saying that campus labs (rooms with special equipment for research) will most likely be open in the fall with extra precautions, and that classes may be remote only or they may offer both remote and in person options, but they haven't decided yet.

But she's pretty adamant that students and professors will have access to their equipment for research.

So no, campus will not be closed. Classes may be closed, which I said initially.

I'm not sure why you're arguing with me. We said the same thing. You just said it in a different way, and I'm not sure why.
