University of Nebraska leaders get raises

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – Several top University of Nebraska administrators are receiving larger raises than usual this year through the university’s non- profit fundraising arm. Budget documents show University of Nebraska President James B. Milliken will receive a 12 percent raise. University of Nebraska-Lincoln Chancellor Harvey Perlman’s pay will increase by 9 percent. University of Nebraska Medical Center Chancellor Harold Maurer will see a 13 percent raise. The raises come are part of the privately financed “executive salary equity” approved by the university’s Board of Regents to keep its schools competitive against other universities. But it also coincides with recent tuition increases. Milliken will receive nearly $411,400 from both public and private sources. By contrast, University of Iowa President Sally Mason’s annual salary was increased this year to $483,600.
