‘Retired’ Leutze still at full salary

… “I stepped down as chancellor,” he said, explaining that he doesn’t retire until June 2004.

Dr. Leutze is still receiving his full salary, $184,000, in his new position as chancellor emeritus. …

Joni Worthington, a spokeswoman for the UNC General Administration, said Dr. Leutze’s transition back to his role as a member of the faculty was handled in the same way that transitions at other UNC institutions have been dealt with in recent years.

The Board of Governors, which oversees the 16-campus system, approved the arrangement. …

A research leave with full pay is typical for retiring chancellors, she said. The idea is to allow them to refresh themselves and to prepare to go back into teaching, she said.
