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
The President's spouse accompanies him on business related travel when her presence is expected and necessary for the event. Travel expenses for spousal or companion travel are not reimbursed under the current University policy, except in very limited cases where the president's spouse is required or is expected to attend the function. The President is provided a residence on campus. Along with providing housing for the President and his family, the residence is also used for various university events and functions hosted by the President. Staff employed by the University provides housekeeping services at the President's residence. Catering services are also provided for university functions and events held at the President's residence for University purpose.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4
The University contributes to a supplemental nonqualified retirement plan under IRC Section 457(f) for the benefit of some officers and key employees. There were no contributions for calendar year 2023. Amounts contributed are unfunded and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture pursuant to the years of service requirement under this plan. From this same plan, the following officers received payments, which included past contributions and earnings, and are included on Schedule J, Part II, Column (B)(iii): Noel Painter, Former EVP and Provost - $173,972; Bruce Chong, Former VP for University Marketing - $142,543; and Jeffrey Altier, Director of Athletics - $120,610. In prior years, payments toward this contribution were reported in Part II, Column (C), during which time all of the officers met the required years of service.
