WVU may double or triple salary for next president
MORGANTOWN -- West Virginia University may double or even triple the salary for its next president.
Raymond Cotton, a national expert on salaries paid to college and university presidents, says outgoing President Mike Garrison's $255,000 salary ranks in the lowest 10 percent nationwide.
The median salary for university leaders is $397,349, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education.
To be competitive, Cotton says WVU should offer at least $500,000.
Half a million should be the minimum offered, according to Michael Perone, vice chairman of Mountaineers for Integrity and Responsibility, a newly formed group of faculty, students and alumni pushing for reforms at WVU, including new procedures for selecting the president.
"Salaries in the neighborhood of $600,000 to $700,000 would not be unreasonable,'' he said. "We have coaches that make more than that.''
WVU football coach Bill Stewart draws about $800,000 a year.

The moral and constitutional obligations of our representatives in Washington are to protect our liberty, not coddle the world, precipitating no-win wars, while bringing bankruptcy and economic turmoil to our people.
