Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)

Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a
All faculty members are allotted a discretionary spending account each year for travel, books, memberships and dues. Support for expenditures is required to be submitted. The President and Dean is provided membership to a social club as part of the contractual agreement with Albany Law School.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4
Albany Law School established a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan under Section 457(f) of the Code. The former President and Dean was eligible for the plan and for the prior fiscal year end $375,000 was recognized as an expense for the plan. Payment of the deferred compensation was made in the 2024 fiscal year.

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
