The University of California is imposing a system-wide freeze on salaries of its non-unionized employees due to enormous financial losses caused by the coronavirus pandemic. President Janet Napolitano announced the pay freeze in a statement Monday that also said she and the UC's 10 chancellors would take a 10% voluntary pay cut. The country’s largest public higher education system estimates financial losses of nearly $1.2 billion from mid-March through April and those losses are expected to increase in the months ahead.

People walk along paths on the University of California at Berkeley campus in front of Sather Tower, also known as the Campanile, in Berkeley, Calif., Thursday, July 18, 2019. Soon students in Berkeley will have to pledge to "collegiate Greek system residences" instead of sororities or fraternities and city workers will have to refer to manholes as "maintenance holes." Berkeley leaders voted unanimously this week to replace about 40 gender-specific words in the city code with gender-neutral terms. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu)
