* Faculty distribution for each university is standardized to 35% professors, 30% associate professors, 30% assistant professors, and 5% instructors. Where no instructors are reported, the calculation of the all-ranks average uses the average compensation of instructors for all Category I four-year public institutions, as published in ACADEME. Source data are reported by universities on November 30th of each academic year; therefore, increases awarded after November are not included.
