What has she done to deserve this?

Joyce Beatty lives in Columbus, OH and was elected to represent the 27th district (Ohio) in 1999. Now she’s landed a real cushy position at Ohio State for $320,000! My, not once did I meet anyone at Ohio State who was worth that--not even the president of the university. Of course, I retired in 2000, and now President Gee is the highest paid public college president in the country.

"Ohio State pays 154 employees at least $250,000 a year, with university president E. Gordon Gee topping the list at $775,000 a year," transparency center director Mike Maurer said. Mr. Gee's total annual pay package, between $1.6 million to $2 million, makes him the highest paid public university president in the nation, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education and the Columbus Dispatch.
