The University of California is a constitutional body within the state. They have a HUGE amount of autonomy on what they do with their funds, and they regularly poor-mouth to get more money from the state and to extract more money from students. Do they really need it?
The California State Auditor released a very interesting report on Tuesday that asserts that the U.C. system has managed to hide about $175 million off the books in order to make it's poor-mouthing more believable. The auditor, Elaine Howle, also states flat-out that the president of the university attempted to interfere with the audit process. The President, Janet Napolitano, says that she did not interfere with the audit and that the stash is in actuality much smaller than the auditor claims it to be.
It also seems likely that the President's office diddled with surveys from individual campuses before they made their way to the auditor. Napolitano claims that they "reviewed" the data to ensure the auditor got "accurate information."
Can you spell Lying Sack Of Shit?
