That year, USC also paid him a $124,000 bonus.

The figures were contained in annual tax forms that the university must publicly release as a nonprofit. The payouts were in addition to Puliafito’s base salary of about $620,000, for a total compensation exceeding $1.8 million, according to the tax filings.A USC spokesman noted that the university's “previous administration reached a settlement agreement” with the former dean. The spokesman said in a statement that the bonus was paid in accordance with Puliafito’s employment contract.
