My point is that these swelling compensation instances usually occur at a limited number of top schools, including some or all of those you mentioned on an earlier occasion (e.g., Minnesota and Wisconsin). Glad you brought up UCLA here. Isn't UCLA a top school? I am currently not quite in the loop about the AP compensation situation, but to back up my assertion I have consulted some second-hand sources, primarily public school faculty salaries published online.
All in all, we are essentially on the same page in our conversation; that is, we both acknowledge -- explicitly for me -- that these 'mind-blowing' figures usually are only associated with top schools (there are exceptions of course, such as Univ of Colorado, as mentioned earlier). I feel that we diverge only to the point that I emphasize on the overall picture (i.e., the situation across the board) while you on specific schools or compensation numbers -- exceptional cases, if you will. Particularly, Never Too Far above referred to the salaries of AP hires this year at her or his own school. But all these will not disprove my 'overarching' argument; rather, they bolster it up. I guess I am not arguing in a nonsensical way, but if I am seen as such, that might be because as a bilingual my way of reasoning sounds kind of 'elusive'.
By the way, I personally resonate with Econ faculty's complaint -- I appreciate Never Too Far referring to it -- regarding business faculty compensations. |
