and Cornelius L. Hopper, M.D., vice president, Health Affairs. Senior administrators in the Office of the President discuss
the University of California's budget process; interaction with the state legislature, the governor, and the Board of Regents;
contracts with the federal government for management of the national laboratories; technology transfer initiative; planning
for new campuses; executive compensation and retirement benefits (including the Voluntary Early Retirement Incentive Plans);

Interview with Lawrence Hershman, vice president and director of the budget, primarily regarding David Gardner's presidency.
