Scope
Use Standard Regression Analysis to identify salary variation only. Individual, qualitative review of “salary outliers” by Chairs, Deans, & Provost. Proposed Predictor Variables: Academic Discipline Rank within Discipline Market Value for Rank within Discipline Years in Current Rank Proposed Study Model
Proposed “Test” Predictor Variables Gender Race or Ethnicity (Total Minority) Base Comparison Groups on CIP Codes Four-digit CIP Codes, where possible Two-digit CIP Codes, if necessary Potential Thresholds for Salary Outliers Actual salary more than Two Std Deviations below predicted salary. Actual Salary more than 10% below predicted salary. Other thresholds may be tested. Proposed Study Model
Solicit Campus Review on Study Model COSW – Dec 2 Faculty Senate – Dec 7 CODRE – Dec 9 CAO – Dec 21 Define & Validate Scope Deans to review rosters of included faculty. Define & Validate CIP Codes Deans to review faculty CIP Codes. Define & Validate Comparison Groups Deans to review final comparison groups. Next Steps
Test salary equity for individual race and ethnicity, in addition to “total minority” compared to “total non-minority.” Consider successor study to evaluate salary equity among term faculty. Consider separate study to assess whether women and minorities are disproportionately represented among term faculty. Consider separate study of clinical faculty in School of Medicine.
