Author Description

This 18th annual administrative compensation survey is designed to provide the most comprehensive and up-to-date salary data available for college and university administrators. The benchmarking resource provides comparison salary data for 168 administrative positions found in colleges and universities nationwide, based on responses from over 1,500 institutions. The positions include those in executive, academic, administrative, external affairs, and student services areas. Introductory material outlines the survey methodology, a profile of participating institutions, and 1994-95 salary increases. General tables provide data on all institutions by budget quartiles and by enrollment quartiles, and on public, private/non-religious, and private/religious institutions by budget quartiles and by enrollment quartiles. Comparative tables display data on salary percentiles for all doctoral institutions, all comprehensive institutions, all general baccalaureate institutions, and all two-year institutions and then data by budget range within each institutional classification. Special tables offer data comparing males and females, minorities and non-minorities, and inside and outside hires, by institutional classification. A final table compares median years of service by institutional classification. Appendices list responding institutions and institutional classification codes and provide a copy of the survey questionnaire packet. (JDD)
