As UC president, Yudof will receive a compensation package valued at
$828,000 in the 2008-09 year, compared to a current package estimated at
$790,000 at the University of Texas. (These figures do not include standard
retirement plan funding for future retirement benefits for university
employees at both institutions.)

The UC compensation consists of the following elements:

* an annual base salary of $591,084 (compared to current annual cash
compensation of $528,860 at the University of Texas). The UC salary falls
below the midpoint salary ($606,200) set for this position by the Board of
Regents and below the median salary ($644,900) of leaders of similar public
and private universities used by the California Postsecondary Education
Commission for comparison purposes.
* as an exception to policy, supplemental pension funding amounting to
$228,000 in 2008-09 and varying somewhat each year thereafter. This
funding, in combination with normal UC Retirement Plan benefits, is
intended to produce a UC retirement benefit comparable to what Yudof would
have expected to receive at his present employer. (The University of Texas
presently provides Yudof $250,000 per year in supplemental deferred
compensation in addition to his base salary and normal retirement
benefits.)
* an automobile allowance of $743 per month or $8,916 per year;
* university-provided housing, as a condition of employment;
* reasonable lodging, transportation and other business-related
expenses associated with university business prior to his relocation, along
with reimbursement of actual costs for packing and relocation of household
effects and library;
* consistent with past practice, if Yudof assumes a UC faculty position
immediately after his tenure as UC president, the university will arrange
for the relocation of his personal belongings, and he will be eligible for
a Mortgage Origination Program loan in order to purchase a primary
residence;
* use of administrative funds for official entertainment and other
purposes allowed by policy; and
standard health, pension and senior management benefits, and standard
sabbatical, sick leave and vacation accrual.

------------------

Commenting on the 32% tuition raise, Yudof had this to say"

"Our hand has been forced," UC President Mark Yudof told reporters after
the vote. "When you don't have any money, you don't have any money."

Why should he get a CAR on the students? Does every professor at
Berkeley get a CAR as part of their pay?

Hey it's a good investment in the eyes of progressives. Look at the
hundreds of brainwashed progressive/anarchists colleges pump out every
year.

HUH?? How do you figure that. If his pay was cut from 828k to 28k, that
would allow 80 students to attend since tuition is 10k a year.

What really needs to be done is to cut out all the BS liberal arts courses
at college. Colleges are for turning out useful people and that means teach
only the hard sciences. If it involves words, drop it.

And this explains why rightards systematically vote for illiterate
buffoons like Bush or Palin.
Sorry, nazi turd, but we still value the intellect.

You can't be serious. The Arts are as important as the "hard"
sciences.
Society needs poets, philosophers, writers, painters and composers. If
we taught only the "hard" sciences we would soon end up with swarms
of Dr. Josef Mengele's, Adolf Hitlers, Josef Stalins, Mao Tse Tungs,
etc..
There must be a balance struck in education that nurtures both left
and
right brained people.

I do agree with you that there are too many made-up, Mickey Mouse
courses based women's studies, black studies and the like. All a
complete
waste of time.

How is it possible for somebody like you to be completely devoid
of intellect? I really get tired of you left-wing echo chambers.
Always
spouting the words and thoughts of others without a clue as to the
insidious nature and intent of our enemies within.

Heh..."affrimative action" in reverse? You're willing to deny "hardly
any" needy students (especially in this looneytunarian/reichtard
economy) a chance at a college education just so a college president
can earn almost a million a year.

And you wonder why China is passing us....
