As community colleges have matured, many presidents' jobs--especially at the largest colleges in the country--have grown to become those of college president, entrepreneur, lobbyist, global ambassador, county leader, and fund raiser rolled into one. Their compensation has grown as well. At the largest two-year colleges and college systems in the country, median total compensation now tops $250,000, according to "The Chronicle"'s first comprehensive look at presidential pay at those institutions. A handful of seasoned presidents make more than $350,000 a year. "The Chronicle"'s survey also found that presidential compensation at community colleges isn't just about salary and retirement anymore. Like universities, many two-year colleges have begun offering their presidents housing and car allowances, deferred compensation, and an array of bonuses. Still, community-college presidents' compensation has not reached the level of that at four-year institutions. The presidents at the 68 largest two-year colleges, districts, and systems make much less than their counterparts at the 182 largest public four-year institutions in the country, according to "The Chronicle"'s survey. At those universities and four-year systems, median compensation is now almost $400,000 a year, $150,000 higher than at community colleges. Their pay also pales in comparison to the chief executives at private institutions-- despite the fact that most of the two-year colleges are many times larger than the private four-year institutions.
