Regents to vote Friday on next NU president and to approve key contract terms
LINCOLN — The University of Nebraska Board of Regents is set Friday to vote on confirmation of Dr. Jeffrey Gold as NU’s ninth president, effective July 1. Under an updated agenda item with “key contractual terms,” Gold would enter an initial five-year contract at a base salary of $1,062,573 — a boost of about $31,000 of Gold’s current salary. Gold would also be eligible for up to 15% of his base salary (nearly $160,000) and include other benefits such as vacation, disability leave, retirement contribution and health insurance.
