Not only school administrators but administrators at the university, government, and 'non-profit' agency levels. THe university is the worst imbalance where you have talented, bright individuals with advance degrees earning 1/3 or 1/4 of the salaries public relations and other administrators earn who have neither advanced degrees nor extensive experience. Even among universities there is a tremendous inequity. Extremely large university administrators with loads of responsibility often received salaries on par with smaller universities. 'Non-profit' organization administrators, like hospitals, receive outrageously high salaries that are taken out of our insurance dollars. It seems like the "CEO Syndrome" has permeated all of the world of employment and it has to stop. We can't afford to pay untalented but politically connected individuals 2 and 3 times what others are receiving. It has to be nationwide and probably legislated. People have to become more aware of salary discrepancies and less willing to accept the word of individuals who say they are necessary. If money is the only motivation for an individual to accept a job then that individual shouldn't be given the position of responsibility. --
