Earnings vary by the size and type of the educational institution. Four-year universities and colleges pay more than community colleges.
Benefits usually include paid vacations and holidays, health insurance, and tuition waivers for their families. Some administrators receive free housing, expense accounts for entertaining, and tickets to sporting events.
