Summary

Under existing law, the University of California, under the administration of the Regents of the University of California, is one of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. Under existing law, the regents have all the powers necessary or convenient for the administration of the university, including the power to employ officers and employees of the university, but are subject to such legislative control as may be necessary to ensure the security of university funds. This bill would express findings and declarations of the Legislature relating to salaries paid to some officers and employees of the University of California. As a condition of the receipt of state funding in the annual Budget Act, the bill would prohibit the University of California from paying any of its employees or officers a salary that exceeds $500,000 in any fiscal year, and would require the University of California to publish specified information regarding its employees.
