Faculty Earnings Compared with Those of Nonacademic Professionals.
Dillon, Kristine E.; Marsh, Herbert W.
Journal of Higher Education, v52 n6 p615-23 Nov-Dec 1981

Comparisons show faculty earnings appear to be comparable to those of nonacademicians. The use of academic contract salary data results in an underrepresentation of academic earnings. (Author/MLW)
