The University of California's governing board has voted to cut undergraduate enrollment and limit compensation for top administrators.

The UC Board of Regents on Wednesday approved President Mark Yudof's plan to deal with a growing budget deficit.

The plan will reduce systemwide enrollment of freshmen by 2,300 students in the coming academic year.

Enrollment of community college students transferring to UC campuses will increase by 500 students, while graduate student levels would remain the same.

Under the second proposal, UC will freeze the salaries of 285 top administrators for the remainder of this academic year as well as the coming year.
