Faculty Compensation and the Cost of Living in American Higher Education.
Keister, Stephen D.; Keister, Lekha G.
Journal of Higher Education, v60 n4 p458-74 Jul-Aug 1989

The extent to which the cost of living affects faculty compensation is demonstrated by comparing faculty at 388 institutions in terms of nominal and real compensation. (Author/MLW)
