So the good folks at Rutgers think Snooki is worth more than renowned author Toni Morrisson?
PISCATAWAY, N.J. — The pouf is mightier than the pen when it comes to speaking fees at New Jersey’s largest university.
The Rutgers University Programming Association paid Snooki of the reality TV show “Jersey Shore” $32,000 Thursday to dish on her hairstyle, fist pumps, and the gym, tan, laundry lifestyle.
That’s $2,000 more than the $30,000 the university is paying Nobel-winning novelist Toni Morrison to deliver Rutgers’ commencement address in May.
Money for Thursday’s appearance came from the mandatory student activity fee.
Freshman Adham Abdel-Raouf told the newspaper he thought the price was a bargain given Snooki’s popularity.
