To PORTERITE and BIG JOE:

You are both WRONG (visit the link to the Sentinel article to read more). Especially BIG JOE, who claims the chancellor is a man, and that the job was given to his wife. Rather, the job was CREATED for Chancellor's PARTNER.

"The University of California created a $192,000-a-year job for the partner of the new UC Santa Cruz chancellor."
From the Sentinel

The job did not exist before, it was CREATED. UC Chancellor Denton is a WOMAN. $190,000 is a RIDICULOUS AMOUNT for a salary, when service workers are not making liveable wages. In response to the claim that students do not pay for the new job: students make checks out to the regents who pay 2/3 of all UC workers salaries. So yes, we are paying for most of Chancellor Denton's partner's salary. And all of the salary is money that should be spent elsewhere (higher worker wages, more money for classes, and lowering tuition).
This isn't hidden knowledge either. I'm really curious to see how you thought otherwise.
