Michigan State University President Resigns In Wake Of Sexual Assault Scandal

I wonder which prison she will be sent to.

But you can still be a creep and a bad university president and still get a nice golden parachute.

"This means that Dr. Simon will be paid at least $750,000 for her first year returning to the faculty from her research leave. After that, she will be paid 75% of that base salary, or at least $562,500 per year. Dr. Simon’s field is higher education. She received her PhD in education from MSU in 1974.


"So based on this contract, it would appear that Dr. Simon will be paid more than twice the amount of the most highly paid faculty member in the College of Education. In addition, she will be paid more than the most highly paid faculty member in the entire university, C. Konrad Gelbke who makes $433,441. He is one of the world’s leading physicists."


The contract also spells out a number of lifetime perks Simon and her husband will receive.

· Parking passes for on-campus parking

· Two free tickets to home football games for the Spartan Club suites

· Two free tickets to women's basketball games

· The option to buy up to four men's basketball tickets in the same location she currently has seats

· Reduced-price tickets for bowl games and post-season play for football, men's and women's basketball and ice hockey

· Parking pass for all home sporting and cultural events


"Other than the granting of emeritus status, we rarely see such benefits in any contracts," Finkelstein said. "What is extremely unusual about these benefits is that so many of these are related to sporting events.

 

I am extremely distressed and embarrassed by my doctoral alma matter. My annual donation will henceforth be directed elsewhere.

 

I wonder if this will be amended as the days, months and years go by. It seems the Athletic Director is resigning.
