An article in Monday's editions about pay for university presidents included an incorrect statement from the Chronicle of Higher Education that William E. Kirwan, chancellor of the University System of Maryland, turned down $100,000 in deferred compensation for 2008-2009. Though Kirwan did not receive the money in 2008-2009, it was converted into a multiyear fund that could be awarded to the chancellor at the end of his contract, based on evaluation of his performance by the system's Board of Regents.

The Sun regrets the error.
