Jim Boeheim remains Syracuse University’s highest-paid employee, according to the university’s IRS filings.
The Daily Orange obtained a copy of SU’s Form 990, a document nonprofit organizations file with the Internal Revenue Service each year, on Tuesday. In the document are the salaries of some of the university’s top earners. Here’s a look at the top 10 in order of reportable compensation:
- Jim Boeheim, head men’s basketball coach ($2,058,826)
- Scott Shafer, head football coach ($1,256,251)
- Daryl Gross, former director of athletics ($796,438)
- Nancy Cantor, former chancellor ($681,768)
- Lou Marcoccia, executive vice president and chief financial officer ($612,326)
- James Steinberg, dean of the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs ($487,912)
- Eric Spina, former vice chancellor and provost; current trustee professor ($469,877)
- Melvin Stith, former Martin J. Whitman School of Management dean; current dean emeritus ($461,790)
- Thomas Walsh, former executive vice president of advancement and external affairs; currently special counsel to the chancellor ($426,630)
- George Langford, former College of Arts and Sciences dean ($391,008)
The salary of current chancellor Kent Syverud was not disclosed. Kevin Quinn, the senior vice president for public affairs at SU, said in an email that because the form covers calendar year 2013 for compensation, rather than fiscal year, and Syverud officially took office in January 2014, there was nothing to report.
