For all the half-answers and a unknown complex presented Wednesday at the meeting of the Regent Board of the University of California during the expected departure of the UCLA for Big Ten, one thing was perfectly clear: it is not ended.

of the president of the UC system Michael Drake describing the impact report as an "temporary" document to the Regent John A. Pérez stressing that the meeting was "a very good start of conversation", the Director of the UC Indicated that plans to deepen all aspects of the UCLA movement, including its impact on lime.

"I am very worried about the financial impact of Cal-Berkeley and to make sure that any new income can be achieved", for the membership of the UCLA to the Big Ten- "Immission to the scenario to help compensate (lime) need ". Tony Thurmond said.

The "financial impact" on CAL has been one of the many questions addressed in a 17 -page impact report discussed Wednesday by the regents. It established both the advantages and disadvantages of the transfer of the UCLA to Big Ten, with the USC, in the summer of 2024.

But it is only when the conversation plunged into the procedural weeds of the UC bureaucracy that the most significant development has been revealed.

The departure of the Bruins of the PAC-12, announced on June 30, was surprising in many ways, including the way the UCLA could leave behind the campus in Berkeley.

In response to a direct line investigation, a spokesperson for the president's office explained at that time that "there was no requirement for a decision of the university board of directors of California or the president's office "

In other words, the UCLA Chancellor's gene block had the power to act by itself.

This may not be the case after all.

Charlie Robinson, the general councilor of the office of the president of the UC, seemed to indicate that the regents could withdraw the authority delegated to a chancellor.

"For this particular question, the regents could say:" We want to act and, therefore, we do not want the president (UC) or the Minister of Foreign Affairs (Campus) to act in this area and simply say that Robinson said.

Another key exchange came a few moments later, when Pérez, the former president of the California state assembly, and a graduate in lime, questioned Robinson on the mechanism required to withdraw authority A Chancellor of the Campus on issues on matters of affiliation of the question of the conference.

.

Souching the problem in hypothetical terms, Pérez asked:

"Without noticing a meeting, without going to a meeting, between the meetings, the chairman of the board of directors and the vice-president could act under provisional measures to maintain an authority which had otherwise been delegated?"

"Correct," said Robinson.
