The less said, the better?

UC President Milliken gave a lengthy interview about various topics related to UC to the LA Times. It appeared yesterday, but apparently occurred before the most recent DOJ lawsuit was filed against UC:

Apparently, the Times would have liked less to be said:

"Milliken was more verbose on the role of higher education and his big-picture visions for UC."

Regardless of the word count, this is what Milliken had to say about the current conflict with the feds and how UC is dealing with it:
