San Diego State University, a place I admire a lot, just hired Elliot Hirshman as its new president, at a controversial salary. I am not exactly sure what I believe about how much public university presidents and provosts should be paid, but I do know that Elliot was an excellent hire for SDSU, and therefore for California.
Elliot was Chief Research Officer at George Washington when I was there, and I served on a university committee that he chaired. He was and am sure still is a good leader, good listener, and problem solver. Research service for faculty at GW improved considerably during his tenure.
