Tenure Track Teacher from Sask ? 5 years ago
My University's faculty agreement formalized a teaching-track (or Academic
Programming as it is called) last year and it is a good model for how things
should be done. I am a tenure-track assistant professor, I primarily teach
(with a teaching load ~5x heavier than standard faculty) but I also serve on
college committees and my pay scale is the same as any research-dedicated
faculty. The only downside is that I can only advance to an associate
professor, not a full professor, but this is minor in comparison to some of
the comments I have read here.
Or they're still thinking about non-TT positions as "spousal," and setting
the salaries accordingly -- basically, getting two professors (or, if you
take teaching loads into account, 2.5-3 professors) for the price of one and
a half because spouses have this odd habit of liking to live in the same
city. The latter situation isn't always a bad one, especially if the couple
has young children, but it does leave the "trailing"/teaching-intensive
spouse vulnerable if anything happens to the marriage (or the TT spouse),
and this approach to setting salaries leaves those of us who hold them, but
who aren't married to someone who earns a higher salary (inside or outside
the academy), or married at all, barely hanging on at the fringe of the
middle class.
