The Regents were in closed session most of the morning. A prior entry on this blog gives you the audio of that part of the morning session which was open. The Regents came back into session early so I missed an item. Thus, the link below is only a partial recording of the afternoon session during which they approved everything including the UCLA hotel and the UCLA med school teaching center. (See earlier posts on those projects.) Indeed, they approved all executive compensation recommendations of the compensation committee and all projects endorsed by Building and Grounds in toto, i.e., no separate votes on particular items. No discussion.
We will eventually get the full audio from the Regent for the afternoon session and post it. There was a discussion prior to where the link below starts that had something to do with a compensation setting process, apparently for the medical centers. As we have noted on this blog, oh so many times, since the Regents live-stream the audio of their meetings, there is no reason why they don’t post the recordings in an archive. If they would do so, we wouldn’t have to request each meeting’s audio as a public document.
You can hear the approvals at the link below. The blanket approvals of everything start at around minute 8.
Given the approval of everything asked with no discussion, a little appropriate music might also be in order:
