Penn State alumni always tell me that it is a private college. It is not part of the Pennsylvania state school system but it does enjoy some state privileges as does Pitt and Temple.

Khatour at Houston achieved tier one status for the university, so she rewarded herself just like any CEO would. This sets the worst possible example for higher education. Administration costs and sports are fueling high tuition for what is otherwise a blue collar school.

What does the asterisk mean after several entries? Deferred compensation upon retirement? Some other deferred payments?

The football and/or men's basketball coach - or both - are pretty much guaranteed to be making more than the President of each of these schools.

Nice work if you can get it. Refresh me on this -- how did these shrubs get these jobs?

Nice salaries, but probably not as high as the football and men's basketball coaches in some cases.

I am always astounded how some not very large and not very high quality systems always make this list. Michigan, Texas, Penn State, OSU--these are very large, high quality programs. But Wright State? All of these salaries are very high, but, it seems like we should at least see the highest quality, most complicated programs paying the most in salary.

Oops, I see that the A&M listing covers only College Station.

The UT football coach is the highest paid state employee in Texas, followed by the A&M coach.
