If you think university administrators are overpaid, what do you think of coaches for football and basketball?

How much should the president of a university with, oh, let's say a $1B annual budget maybe 7K employees and 35K students be paid? What number would you feel is fair and honest?



500K max . There are way too many bureaucrats in a layer over the people that do the grunt work(teachers)

You ducked the question.



500K max . There are way too many bureaucrats in a layer over the people that do the actual grunt work(teachers. There job is to keep the university afloat , to make sure that students are properly taught by qualified individuals and to ensure the university is seen in the best possible light.
