At least in my experience at a UC, the media portrayal was fairly accurate. It seemed like there was a never-ending onslaught of concerts, "multicultural events", sporting events, "community center" activities, safe spaces, Greek events, etcetera (all of which receive school funding in some form or another). I appreciated the occasional guest speaker, but looking around I couldn't help but notice money pouring from everywhere, namely for things that had nothing to do with academics. Far too many administrators with too much time on their hands.
