Half of N.Y. colleges pay profs less than $100K - BRIAN TUMULTY, Ithaca Journal

Full professors earn an average $223,000 at Columbia University and $169,000 at Cornell University, but half of New York colleges pay professors less than $100,000. That's among findings in a survey released Monday by the American Association of University Professors. Nationwide, faculty salaries rose only 1.4 percent in the current 2014-15 academic year compared to a year earlier, the survey found. During the six academic years since the onset of the Great Recession, inflation-adjusted faculty salaries have declined by about one-tenth of one percentage point. http://www.ithacajournal.com/story/news/local/2015/04/13/new-york-professor-pay/25683261/
