Plus it is easier to get more meaningful things done in a private organization that deal with the bureaucracy that we have in large public schools with lot of politicians and boosters constraining you.
Unless of course you are a part of a morally challenged conference and everyone just colludes and cheats

and reality is when you factor in tax implications in Texas she nets marginally more than he does
Yes, but his rationale for declining it -- “too high for a public university" -- doesn't apply at his new destination. Also, the outgoing president's pay increased significantly from 2016 to 2017, so presumably her salary is higher now than it was in 2017. Finally, Georgia's top income tax bracket is 5.75%, which isn't nothing, but which also doesn't come close to wiping out the difference between their gross incomes.
All I’m saying is I doubt it was about money. Since he was offered more money at Texas and turned it down. I get the point of public vs private, big point still remains I seriously doubt money was the driving force for him here.
Good riddance. This guy accomplished nothing meaningful nor inspiring. Just another garden variety virtue signaling liberal academic that has no clue how the real world operates. Guy has lived and worked in a protected bureaucratic bubble his whole life.
Who the hell turns down a $250k pay raise and caps his bonus? What an idiot. That right there tells me he's not up for the job. Get him out of here.
academic liberal?......worked in a bureaucratic bubble?
I must be thinking of someone else. I could have sworn he was the guy that headed Seal team 6 that got ben Ladin…..
Ya that was not our school president--- that was our chancellor-- Adm McRaven.
@GuaranteedFresh! Can probably tell you all you need to know about him as well as Gen Stanley.
I've never been a fan of McRaven. He always looked for self enrichment and craved the spotlight.
Gen McCrystal got shit done, period. Bad decisions concerning Pat Tillman catching munitions stamped with Made In The USA ruined his career. And thennnn he got busted talking sh!t about Biden.
