Author Description

This 14th annual compensation survey provides a broad range of 1990-91 salary data available for college and university administrators in 168 positions common to most higher education institutions. The survey data were gathered from 1,402 institutions (a 41% response rate). General tables provide median salary data for all institutions, public institutions, private-independent institutions and private-religious institutions, by budget quartiles and by enrollment quartiles. Comparative tables provide salary percentiles by institutional classification (doctoral, comprehensive, baccalaureate, and two-year institutions) and by budget range. Thirty-two tables compare median salaries between males and females, between minorities and non-minorities, between inside and outside hires, and by median years of service. Appendices contain a list of responding institutions, a salary comparison worksheet, a copy of the survey questionnaire, and a list of institutional classification codes developed by the National Center for Education Statistics.
