NEW HAVEN, Conn.--Faculty compensation at Yale University has not kept up with increases at other schools, especially for assistant and associate professors.
A recent report by the Yale chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) shows that while in 1970 Yale compensated professors at a rate higher than any of the other schools included in the study, today Yale has dropped to sixth place, the Yale Daily News reported.
At the associate professor level Yale dropped from sixth place to last place, among 11 schools examined.
Many schools included in the AAUP study have raised faculty compensation to keep up with the inflation rate, but Yale has lagged behind this rate, raising the "question of whether we can ever get the best people to even apply here," Henry A. Turner, a professor and spokesman said.
