Let's say you can increase your own salary, and no one is going to stop you from doing so. While some may not want to because it's a non-profit, others will happily nudge their pay upwards. Eventually the universities that hesitated to raise their pay will be well below the pay of the others, and feel forced to raise their pay to something comparable to attract decent talent. Same sort of trend occurring with CEO pay, just with a lot less hesitation because no one feels like they're robbing a charity.
