Consider the case of University of North Carolina Law School Professor Gene Nichol, who teaches one course per semester, and pulls down almost $213,000 per year in that state-funded school, as professor and head of the school’s Center on Poverty, Work and Opportunity.
Add in his wife, also on the UC payroll ay the medical school and Health Care System, and this fun couple pulls down over 600k per year.
