SACRAMENTO University of California leaders faced sharp rebukes once again by state senators yesterday, with some criticizing UC President Robert Dynes' leadership and others questioning whether UC's governing board is serving its purpose. In the second and final hearing scheduled by the Senate Education Committee on UC compensation matters, several senators said they were dissatisfied with how Dynes has worked to correct extravagant paid-leave arrangements and outside compensation for chancellors none of which were reported to regents or the public.
----- Senators have also been troubled by a $248,000 undisclosed payout to UC San Diego Chancellor Marye Anne Fox for a sabbatical she said she earned at her previous institution. Fox's decision to serve on 10 corporate and nonprofit boards, for which she received roughly $340,000 in the past year, has also drawn senators' attention.
------ It's a bit loosey-goosey, said Sen. Jack Scott, D-Pasadena. We hear about a salary, but it's not the full figure. Some of the things that have come out, you're getting paid for a sabbatical gained at another institution, or you're going to be paid to serve on boards.
The the school down the street is facing closure and layoffs because of a lack of funding.
OH! I see less just raise tuition one little more time and or raise taxes.
UC qualifies as a crime organization under RICO.
If I am not mistaken the board just raised her salary to around a million dollars per year.
