AAUP Faculty Compensation Survey 2009-10
John Curtis, AAUP (jcurtis@aaup.org)

At the AIR Forum in Atlanta, we announced plans to carry out a pilot test to collect individual-level faculty compensation data. This will eliminate the need for sections III (continuing faculty) and IV (distribution by salary intervals) of our survey, and allow for calculation of medians, minima and maxima. It will also allow for the collection of salary data by discipline. We do not want individually identifiable data, and confidentiality rules will be maintained. The new format will be entirely optional for 2009-10. We do not yet have a specific format for submitting data, however, if you are interested in participating, please send us an e-mail to the address below. We will be sending more information to our survey contacts later in the summer.

During the summer we will be updating contact information for next year’s survey. If you know that the contact person or other information about your institution will be changing, please send an e-mail to aaupfcs@aaup.org. You may also call 202-737-5900 ext. 118 for assistance, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm Eastern Time during business days.
