- ''2006-01-27 21:08:09'' [[nbsp]] What a douchebag. It's nice to see how so many people sacrificed during the civil rights movement so Rose can drop a discrimination lawsuit for money and a job with the people she accused of being racist and sexist. Did those people stop becoming racist and sexist after parting with taxpayer/student money? Too bad MLK Jr. didn't know about the redeeming power of money...could've saved him a lot of trouble and speechmaking. --["ApolloStumpy"]	+ ''2006-01-27 21:08:09'' [[nbsp]] What a douchebag.

- ''2006-01-28 10:15:16'' [[nbsp]] Bringing up MLKJ is non-sequitur. MLKJ's work was with poor southern African Americans, not the educated and affluent. His work stands on it's own merit regardless of the conduct of others. The reality is that only a handful of people know the whole Celeste Rose story and they're not talking. We don't know why she was fired. I can guess that she thought she had a job for life and found an lawyer that agreed with her. Larry made a command decision to pay her off probably because either a) she had a chance of winning big or b) the publicity of the case would be damaging to UC and/or UC leadership. Sadly, I don't think there's any way for us to know. --["GrumpyoldGeek"]	+ ''2006-01-28 10:15:16'' [[nbsp]] Bringing up MLKJ is non-sequitur.

And I certainly don't think the the lack of minority hires in the admin qualifies as evidence, at the most that simply proves the lack of affirmative action. But I totally agree that someone needs to investigate this, and the student paper or petitioning faculty certainly seems like a good place to start. I agree that a quick settlement looks bad. If the SF Chron is right that perhaps the UCD Admin. just wants to avoid bad press, I would say it is already too late for that. Besides if there is no merit, they would be better off clearing their name.

She has served UC Davis as the ["UCD Administrative Officers" Vice Chancellor] for University Relations and has over 22 years of experience working within the ["University of California"]. In Spring of 2005 ["Larry Vanderhoef" Chancellor Vanderhoef] changed Rose's job duties as a Vice Chancellor, but she threatened to sue, and was then given an interesting promotion that consists of a two year guaranteed salary of $205,000 (a $20,000 raise from her former salary of $185,000, since she was due for a raise that was given to her by the UC President in 2001). Bonus benefit: no requirement to perform any work (which she has apparently fulfilled admirably, so far although the position does allow her to work on projects within the University) and a $50,000.00 payment to "help her find new employment". They even promise a letter of recommendation! In fact, the Chronicle reports that she could "quit" the job and still receive the guaranteed two years pay. She also retains her former benefits, such as a growing pension, severance pay, and health care. ''"The salary and transition payment alone add up to $460,000. In addition, it could potentially give her an additional $20,500 in severance and boost her annual pension by as much as $17,000 a year."''	+ Celeste Rose is a former ["UCD Administrative Officers" Vice Chancellor] who was at the center of an executive compensation controversy in 2005 and 2006.

The package guaranteed her two years as an advisor to the chancellor with a salary of $205,000, with no work requirements and no possibility of termination. In addition, she received $50,000 to "help her find new employment". She also retained her former benefits, such as a growing pension, severance pay, and health care.

To me, I've always looked at this as a debate between whether the University should be run as a corporation (as L. Vizzle paid off Rose to avoid further complications) or as a public body (where a public investigation would be necessary, and the guilty wouldn't be protected by the University). It's really an issue between the faculty and the administration as to how the University should operate. This is why, as a grad student and member of ASUCD, I've been trying to avoid this issue and get other students to avoid it too. I believe the issue is not so much about Rose herself as it is about how the University operates. --["BrentLaabs"]

And I certainly don't think the the lack of minority hires in the admin qualifies as evidence, at the most that simply proves the lack of affirmative action. But I totally agree that someone needs to investigate this, and the student paper or petitioning faculty certainly seems like a good place to start. I agree that a quick settlement looks bad. If the SF Chron is right that perhaps the UCD Admin. just wants to avoid bad press, I would say it is already too late for that.

Why has no one--the Aggie, the Davis Enterprise, the Bee and the Chronicle--bothered to test the claim by conducting an investigation into the Chancellor's personnel practices? The fifty members of the faculty who signed the petition to condcut a vote of "no confidence" should be among the first to start asking such questions, unless of course they have no interest in equal opportunity and diversity. I suppose such a course of inquiry is too much to ask from the faculty of one of the world's leading "research" universities? One might start by asking what would one have to demonstrate to sustain a claim of discrimination? Unless, of course, it's easier to villify the person making the claim.... --["VincentHarris"]

His work stands on it's own merit regardless of the conduct of others. The reality is that only a handful of people know the whole Celeste Rose story and they're not talking. We don't know why she was fired. I can guess that she thought she had a job for life and found an lawyer that agreed with her. Larry made a command decision to pay her off probably because either a) she had a chance of winning big or b) the publicity of the case would be damaging to UC and/or UC leadership.

It's nice to see how so many people sacrificed during the civil rights movement so Rose can drop a discrimination lawsuit for money and a job with the people she accused of being racist and sexist. Did those people stop becoming racist and sexist after parting with taxpayer/student money? Too bad MLK Jr. didn't know about the redeeming power of money...could've saved him a lot of trouble and speechmaking. --["ApolloStumpy"]
