An article came out with some details on the benefits of CCU President, Dave DeCenzo.

The president of Coastal Carolina University is getting a retirement package of up to $1 million.. He is currently paid $307,000 a year by the university and the Coastal Carolina University Housing Foundation, including a housing allowance and other perks.

I'm not sure what standard compensation is, but how can you justify a housing allowance with a salary of $300k?

613k

UD President Patrick Harker's salary was $728,329 in the most recent reporting period (FY11).

I think Montana's is $600,900.30

Sac State President Alexander Gonzalez gets:
Salary = $355,000
Housing allowance = $60,000
Total = $415,000

He also gets a car allowance, but I can't find the numbers.

Salaries of the Presidents of Utah's regional university presidents:

Weber State University • $210,000
Utah Valley University • $205,000
Southern Utah University • $200,000
Dixie State College • $180,000

Some caveats: doesn't include benefits or pay they might receive for other functions they may do for the university or paid for from endowment, this is the state's compensation. Several refused a pay increase last fall (but this was generally accomplished by donating the raise to charity, which nobody will probably notice next year). Weber State's president is turning over, so that salary likely will be negotiated with whomever they select.

One other caveat, they get an additional 14% added to their 403B retirement account in addition to salary.

Southern's president has a $426,000 package

Btw Andy, it looks like your last Prez, who was lured off to UMass, was making about $400K. The new Prez is making considerably lower according to The Sun:

Loeschke, whose annual salary will start at $275,000, said she's not ready to reveal her specific plans for Towson and won't do so until she has met with numerous faculty members and students. "I'm not coming in with ideas to shove down people's throats," she said.

I think Caret was making $400-450K before he left for umASS, where is is reportedly amking over 600K.
He renovated the President house significantly. So that works into her new compensation.

Man, that's a Balmer Hon is I ever did saw one! Perfect for TU :

Peacock makes $290,000.


His biggest perk is a house located on top of the mountain with a gorgeous view.

Not to mention the fat CalPers pension payout he gets upon retirement.

Drew Faust of Harvard made almost $875K in salary and benefits in 2010. Pretty good coin for a playoff party pooper , but the president of Harvard Management Company -- the school's endowment investment group -- made over $8 million.

Surprisingly low for the #1 brand in the business.

It is, but running Harvard isn't that difficult. It already is on top and has piles of cash laying around.

Running a medicore state school with enrollment challenges and budget cuts is far more difficult IMO.

You're kidding, right? Professional athletes make MILLIONS, and still get a per diem. Oh, and most probably get 90% of their meals comped.

Harvard is very hard to run, due to its prima donna faculty for the most part.
