St. Olaf Faculty Compensation, 1965-current
A summary of data on salary and compensation reported by St. Olaf College to the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) beginning in 1965. Faculty included in these surveys follow the AAUP definitions of inclusions and exclusions. (For instance, they typically include faculty on sabbatical leaves but exclude their replacements; on the other hand, they exclude faculty on administrative assignments but include their replacements.)
Note: In certain years the total number of faculty is larger
than the totals of the four ranks because a few individuals without
regular rank are included in the total. Also, numbers displayed in italic
represent estimates of missing source data.
Several graphs portraying these data are also available on line:
- St. Olaf Faculty Compensation, Actual Dollars, 1965-current
- St. Olaf Faculty Salary Quartiles, 1965-current
- St. Olaf Faculty Benefits as Percent of Compensation, 1965-current
This site also contains reports on the history of faculty salaries and the history of compensation beginning in 1965 which also show this data in current dollars.
The AAUP source data with both salary and compensation information for 1965-current, reported separately for men and women, is also available as an Excel file and as a tab-separated file for those who may wish to do their own analyses.
