> The highest paid NYS public employee is not a med school department chair…it is Alain Kalayeros who runs the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering at UAlbany…who happens to drive a smoking hot Ferrari. Guess since he’s brought in billions of dollars to the campus he deserves all the cash he gets.

I don’t think they count his grant money and what he gets paid as a stipen. Seems like think they count his 800k+ that the state pays him, in which makes him not the top earner. SUNY downstate chair gets paid more from nys, 1.06 mill in '12.
