Over 30 years of retirement, Cornell would collect as much as $3.66 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes South Central Reporter.
The projection assumes Cornell received $76,838 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Cornell will have already received $237,498 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
