Report: University and college presidents' compensation on the rise

But don’t worry about them; 42 of the presidents earned over $1 million, with the median compensation at $410,523. In fact, the ratio for private-college presidents runs $5, 466 in compensation for every $1 million in expenses, according the report.

In an article about the analysis in the magazine, Ron B. Seifert, vice president of the Hay Group, explains that few people are qualified to run an organization as complex as a university or college having budgets in the multimillions, so retention is extremely important.

Seifert noted that skill sets to manage $2 billion budgets are different from those needed to run companies with budgets in the millions, and there are few executives qualified to do that.
