Why was my endowment, private grant, or restricted contract not excluded from the furlough program?
UCOP designated specific fund group numbers systemwide that would be excluded from the furlough program. The fund numbers for UC Berkeley that correspond to these fund groups can be found on the UC Berkeley Fund Numbers Excluded from the Furlough Plan document. These funds include specific contract, grants, cooperative agreements and special State appropriations of AIDS, Tobacco, and Breast Cancer research grants awarded to campuses by UCOP. Other restricted gifts, private contracts and endowments are not excluded for purposes of the Furlough/Salary Reduction Plan. Departments who have employees in restricted gifts or private contracts funding may roll the salary reductions savings for these employees back into the program so the private grant or restricted gift is still fully used to support the stipulated program or activity. For example, the savings could be used to offset office or overhead costs incurred by the program.
