This report, covering 4,979 faculty in teacher education, specific academic and vocational programs, is part of an annual national survey of faculty salaries. The survey is in two parts: one covering public and one covering private four-year colleges and universities. Data for the l995-96 baseline year and 1998-99 trend year were collected for full-time teaching faculty in 53 selected academic disciplines from 279 public and 386 private institutions. The first section of the report defines the methodology and terms used; this is followed by a data page listing average salaries for both public and private participating institutions by faculty rank (including a new assistant professor rank), faculty mix percent, and salary factors. A concluding section compares salary trend information for both public and private institutions for each of the 2 study years with trend information for all fields and with the Consumer Price Index. It notes that, in 1995-96, average teacher education faculty salaries in public and private institutions were, respectively, 12.8 percent and 19.2 percent below the average for all ranks in all major fields. In 1998-99, these averages were, respectively, 7.3 percent and 23.1 percent below the average across fields. Appended is a list of the 53 selected academic disciplines, as well as lists of the participating public and private colleges. (CH)
