Distinguished professorships must rely on private funds
The University life is incentive enough for some professors
Donald Steeples, professor of geology, makes $10,837 more a year, thanks to a gift from the family of Dean McGee, a KU alumnus who was president of Kerr Oil Co. that makes Steeple's annual salary $75,870 instead of $65,033.
Private gifts mean extra money in some professors' pay envelopes each month. For some, it's a little, and for others it can be a lot.
Martin Dickinson, professor of law, has $6,928 added to his annual salary of $107,922 from the estate of Robert A. Schroeder, a 1937 graduate of KU's School of Law.

The gifts, or "endowed chairs", are willed to the University by donors. Kansas endowment officials place the gift in an interest-bearing savings account. The interest is then drawn out and added to the professor's annual salary.
Steeples and Dickinson are two of the 75 distinguished or named professors at the University of Kansas. Distinguished and named professors receive a bump in their annual salary from money that is donated privately. Their awards come in recognition of excellent work and achievement in their respected fields.
A mere 1.4 percent of the funds in the University's salary budget comes from private sources to pay distinguished professors, said Richard McKinney, budget director. The remaining 98.6 percent of the salary budget comes from the state treasury, which draws from taxes and student tuitions.
While University professors are happy to receive monetary gifts,

"Private donors have wanted to provide more to make the University even better."
Martin Dickinson Schroeder professor of law
many think that the responsibility of giving outstanding instructors a competitive salary lies with the state and its taxpayers, not private donors and corporations.
"One could argue that if Kansas wants to have good departments, the state has to provide support," Dickinson said. "Private donors have wanted to provide more to make the University even better."
Anthony Walton, associate professor of geology, said that the ultimate responsibility for paying faculty members lies with the state.

Administrators don't openly seek funds for distinguished professors. In fact, the endowment for even a modest salary increase requires a large amount of money.
"We really strive to keep our professors," he said. "A way to do it is to have distinguished professors."
David Shulenburger, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said establishing a named professorship now required start-up funds from $1.5 million to $2 million. Because few gifts are that big, smaller dollar amounts are used to attract and retain lower-ranked professors and to finance special programs.
Money isn't really the issue anyway with some named professors. Despite being tempted to leave the University for private sector jobs with better salaries, neither Dickinson or Steeples plans toleave KU in the near future.
"I find my contact with students satisfying," Dickinson said. "I enjoy the academic side as well as writing papers about my work."
After having offers from the professional world that would pay him $200,000 a year, Steeples would rather be a professor.
"I can't imagine what it would take to get me to leave KU," he said.
