from last year: "The University of California says its incoming president will skip the residence favored by former presidents and live in a 6,800-square foot Oakland home instead.
Mark Yudof is scheduled to start in his new job next month after leading the University of Texas since 2002.
In the past, UC presidents and their families lived near the university system's Berkeley campus in a 13,000-square foot home now in need of millions of dollars in repairs.
The 63-year-old Yudof and his wife are set to live in a new home that will cost the university more than $11,000 per month.
That comes on top of a salary and benefits package for Yudof that puts his annual compensation at more than $925,000. Yudof's predecessor earned $436,000 per year in total compensation."

lets keep it up sisters&brothers! this movement is so much bigger than many of us realize--solidarity forever! education will make us stronger!
We need a new system in America; one that will place education, healthcare, jobs, peace & freedom at the top of the list, not war, unemployment, homelessness, poverty, ignorance, out of control policemen and bailouts for people at the top of a pyramid system called capitalism.
But how do we get there?
WE REFUSE TO COOPERATE WITH ALL AUTHORITY
WE RESIST AND WE DISRUPT THE SYSTEM OF BUSINESS AS USUAL
WE STICK TOGETHER AND FIGHT THIS THING TILL THE PEOPLE WAKE UP TO JOIN US ONE DAY! WE CAN OVERPOWER THE POLICE IN OUR NUMBERS. THERE ARE MORE OF US CIVILIANS THAN THERE ARE COPS. WE DO HAVE THE POWER. LET'S USE IT!
