If you go to:
http://www.collegiatetimes.com/databases/salaries/university-of-missouri-columbia-2009
you will find the salaries of all employees of the University of Missouri for 2009. There are 250 of them making over $172,000 per year!
Certainly now in 2012, these 250 people's salary is even higher.
Surely a small "adjustment" in the salaries of these people could be made to come up with the needed $400,000.
