A resolution to propose to the people of the State of California an amendment to the Constitution of the State, by adding Section 10 to Article IX thereof, relating to the University of California.

Existing provisions of the California Constitution provide that the University of California constitutes a public trust, 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 give that corporation all the powers necessary or convenient for the effective administration of its trust. This measure, during any year in which the university provides more than 600 managerial employees with annual salaries higher than the Governor's, would prohibit the university from increasing systemwide student tuition and fees or from entering into a new, or renewing an existing, services contract with a for-profit company paying substandard wages, as defined, to its nonprofessional workers.
