Abstract: Although many faculty members in higher education will contend that their occupations are chosen because of a calling to the profession rather than a desire to make a certain salary, faculty members are also apt to agree that salary equity remains a concern. In other words, faculty members may not be in the profession for the money, but once in the profession, faculty members do seek to receive equitable pay for their time and rank (Carney, 2012). The problem is that, for the most part, salary is not equitable among men and women in the education profession; therefore, this study seeks to focus on salary disparities within the University of North Carolina System through an in-depth analysis of other institutions’ salary studies and data retrieved from the 2013-2014 Annual Association of University Professors salary survey.
