Number of state employees way up. From 59 to 111. 45 are PASSHE and every single one is a senior leader for a university or the entire system. President pay in PASSHE is in the 40th percentile.

In this time of financial strife for most of the PASSHE instututions, this is terrible optics. When you re laying off professors, administrators and support staff, giving your big wigs a pay raise brings in to question the seriousness with which this "makeover" is being taken by those at the top.

Question I have that is not answered by this article is how many PASSHE system employees received pay raises but did not cross this magic $200K threshold? As a practical matter, not much difference between making $199K and $200K. All that extra dollar does is put your name in a newspaper.

Its also possible that this is total compensation, not salaries. The state system just did a major early retirement incentive so its possible that some of what we're seeing is a lower salary plus the retirement incentive payout. I don't have the time to do the research.

They're doing very well but this won't amount to much. Ford City is trying very hard to reinvent itself but they're too isolated and don't have a diverse economy. Kittanning is Indiana without the university. At one point they were looking at opening a campus in Erie.
Freeport is becoming a boomtown. It's right off 28 and real estate there is rocking.
They may do OK there. You figure that's Armstrong High, Kiski Area, Freeport, Apollo, Knoch, Leechburg and the Indiana region all close by.
