LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
ACA 24, as introduced, Nestande. University of California.
Existing provisions of the California Constitution provide that
the University of California constitutes a public trust and requires
the university to be administered by the Regents of the University of
California, a corporation in the form of a board, with full powers
of organization and government, subject to legislative control only
for specified purposes. These provisions require that corporation to
have all powers necessary or convenient for the effective
administration of its trust.
This measure would, on January 1, 2011, repeal the constitutional
provisions relating to the university and the regents and would
require the university and the regents to be continued in existence
subject to legislative control as may be provided by statute. The
measure would require the Legislature to enact legislation to
implement these provisions.
