Sacramento Bee: UC weighs raises of 33% for all 10 chancellors

University of California regents are weighing a proposal to increase their top executives’ pay by an average of 33 percent over the next four years, beginning with salary hikes this year of between 13 and 17 percent.

The plan, which will be discussed in a closed committee meeting today, is drawing fire from critics who question the propriety of such increases in a tight budget year for the state.
