Even the Lieutenant Governor is against this increase. So what the fuck?

On September 17, 2007, California Lieutenant Governor John Garamendi sent a letter to Chancellor Charles Reed (also an asshole, like the Board of Trustees) stating his adamant opposition to the excessive executive salary increases.

In addition, another letter was sent to Chancellor Reed regarding the simultaneous scheduling of the UC Board of Regents meeting and the CSU Board of Trustees meeting. Does’t this simultaneous scheduling reak of something shady going on?

I can only hope that this dissention from above will lead to some sort of shake-up. I’m not sure exactly who is allowed to fire the Chancellor, but I hope that someone can find a way. This guy has lead the CSU system on a downhill slide for the past ten years, and he absolutely needs to go.
