THE SALARY SITUATION IN
KANSAS

(1936=+'37)

A Study of Salary Scales,
‘Reductions, and Restorations

in State Universities

of the Middle West,

 

 
7

K. U. SALARIES BELCW SCALE OF
OTHER MID-WEST STATE UNIVERSITIES

In 1930-'31 the median instructional salaries at 12 mid-western state
universities* were on the average from 11,6 to 19,9 per cent higher than those
at the University of Kansas. Four years later (1934~'35) the difference ranged

from 20.8 to 39.4 per cent. This year the differential runs from 21,6 to 35.4
per cent,

The averages for the various ranks are as follows:

Professors Assoc. Prof, Asst. Prof. Instructors

Per cent 30-31 4635 36057 30-31 B4e35 S6—37 BOeSL 34435 G6~-37 BOw~S]) B4e35 GO-37
that av-

erage is

 

This discrepancy against K. U. is due to two things: (1) relatively
heavier reductions in individual salaries after 1930-'31 at K. U. than at other

state universities; and (2) earlier and more generous restorstions in cther
states than have been possible in Kansas.

NOTE: This difference doubtless would be found to be even greater if we
included state universities in the East and far West and the large
endowed universities, since their 1930 salaries were in general
considerably higher and their depression reductions much less than

those in Kansas, All these schocls compete with Kansas fcr staff
members. a

reports of the U. S. Office of Education,
EXTENT OF SALARY REDUCTIONS AFTER 1930-'31

A sample survey by the American Association of University Professers*
shows that out of 96 representative institutions studied, 15 did not cut
salaries ~~ 14 in the East and 1 in the South. Only 64.5 per cent of the
private institutions represented in the survey reduced salaries; 85 per
cent of the denominational institutions did so; whereas 95.6 per cent of
the public institutions introduced cuts.

A study of available reports on salary reductions in educational
institutions indicates that the average cuts ranged between 15 and 20 per
cent, with the median approximately 15 per cent, In Kansas the reduction
ranged from 15 to 30 per cent. In other mid-western states the cuts at the
state universities were generally less than this, as shown in the following
table.

State Range of Cuts
Per cent
Minnesota 0 to 17h**
Indiana 8 to 124
Tllinois 5 to 15**
Missouri 5 to 20**
Oklahoma 5 to 20
Michigan 6 to 20
Arkansas 8 to 20**
Chio 4 to 22**
Nebraska 2or*
Colorado Aver, 20**
Towa 15 to 304
Kansas 15 to 30##
Texas 25 to 30**

 

* “Bulletin of the American Association of University Professors for March,
1936,

** Part of this has since been restored. See Page 4.

# Reduction was actually lower than in Kansas. For example, a salary
that was cut 18% in Iowa was reduced 25% in Kansas. The Iowa cuts
above 18% applied to salaries that were with a few exceptions higher
than any paid in Kansas,

## Except in case of the Chancellor the maximum reduction was 25 per cent.
REDUCTIONS AND RESTORATIONS

IN PUBLIC SERVICE IN KANSAS

Reductions of individual salaries after 1930 and restorations of
these reductions after 1933 have not been uniform in the various branches
of public service in Kansas, This is shown in the following table;

EXTENT OF RESTORATIONS IN

MID-WESTERN STATE UNIVERSITIES

The American Association of University Professors reports that by
1935936 one-third of the institutions in the semple survey made partial
salary restorations, with the East and South leading. A circular of the
U. S, Office of Education* indicates from one~third to one-half of the 319
schools reporting increased salaries in 1935='36. In addition, a number of
institutions made partial restorations in 1934*'35, And some restorations
have been made during the current year.

Reports from presidents of midewestern state universities show that
restorations have been made in the Mid-West as follows:

Arkansas
Colorado

Tllinois

Michigan

Missouri

PROFESSOR*S SALARY AT K.U.
LOWEST IN 13 MID-WEST STATES
Even in 1930 the everage instructional salary at the University of
Kansas was somewhat below that paid in other mid-western state universities,
This difference was increased by relatively heavier reductions in Kansas,
and earlier restorations in other states, The situation is shown below, the
rank of full professor being used for illustration: :
