Yes, she did get paid more to speak than a Nobel Prize winner.
That's more to do with the American public than the university in a way because
no matter who they are(the university) they still are subject to the "going rate".
Ok now to back track on my own statements : It's still a question of why have
her speak at all?
But it's also reality because being smart does not in anyway guarantee that you will
ever make a dime. That might suck, but that's the truth.
