These are secrets?
The Chron seems to be implying that UC staff are actually overpaid by revealing the TOP SECRET non-salary stuff UC gives to employees. None of the things that Schevitz and Wallack seem so shocked by seem particularly shocking to me, though since my parents were university dudes, maybe I had some "inside info," however obvious it all sounds.
None of that was mentioned in a consultant's report the university released in September saying UC executives' salaries are 15 percent below those of their peers at other major universities. The report, by Mercer Human Resource Consulting, was part of a proposal to UC's Board of Regents to consider management, faculty and staff pay raises.
...
In September, UC released the Mercer report, which university officials said proves their employees are underpaid in salary. But the study focused on employees' base salary, and excluded some other forms of cash compensation -- such as relocation stipends and administrative stipends.
Well, that's partly because every university that you compare UC to will do exactly the same thing.
