EAST LANSING, MI — At a hastily called Michigan State University Board of Trustees special meeting Sunday evening, trustees of the school voted to double the salary of President Kevin Guskiewicz to possibly prevent him from leaving the school, according to various media reports.
The last minute resolution increases Guskiewicz’s salary to $2 million annually and gives him a boost in deferred compensation, from $200,000 annually to $250,000.
The board met over Zoom for the meeting, which wasn’t called until Saturday evening. The board last night during the meeting gave no explanation why the meeting was ramped up so quickly, fueling further speculation Guskiewicz was prepared to bolt the East Lansing school.
