| I have no specific opinion on the salaries listed here. But I will say that it IS absurd how many people become rich working for/ at/ with or running "not for profit" institutions. A lot of staff in or related to the arts, public broadcasting, colleges, charities, etc make a great deal of money. I don't think it's right for an institution to be treated as "non-profit" when some people can get super rich doing that. I am not arguing that everyone (or even most) of the staff at such places are way over paid. Merely, it is hard for me to justify an institution having tax-exempt status when their CEOs, college presidents, head coaches, etc make 7 figures. Or Children's Television Workshop being non-profit while seeing all the branded toys and media they sell (or sold by others with CTW getting a percentage). It makes me angry. Especially the college salaries. |
