You’re kidding right? I work for a major University but I work on the hospital side in Finance. I see what they are paid, their perks, incentives, etc. Most of them make 250-400K a year for teaching a couple of classes. They are also Union.
At least in the medical school people should be treating patients, with teaching/training students, residents, fellows etc. as a part of that. Of course, in the university setting there are those in the medical school who do little or no clinical work and are primarily research faculty. If they are working hard and are productive, they should also be rewarded, but the primary responsibility of any university medical school should be provision of excellent patient care first, and education second. After that come the other aspects of the mission.
I was speaking more on the side of the undergraduate side of higher education.
