*Notes:
- Instructional faculty is defined as those members of the instructional-research staff who are employed on a full-time basis and whose major regular assignment is instruction, including those with released time for research.
Institutions are asked to exclude (a) instructional faculty who are employed to teach less than two semesters, three quarters, two trimesters, or two four-month sessions; (b) instructional faculty in preclinical and clinical medicine; (c)
instructional faculty who are employed on a part-time basis; (d) administrative officers with titles such as dean of students, librarian, registrar, coach, and the like, even though they may devote part of their time to classroom
instruction and may have faculty status; (e) undergraduate or graduate students who assist in the instruction of courses, but have title such as teaching assistant, teaching fellow, and the like; (f) faculty on leave without pay; and (g)
replacements for faculty on sabbatical leave.
- AAUP data include nursing, Allied Health, and other health professions faculty for Ohio State, Purdue, Iowa, Missouri, Colorado State and Minnesota. UNL does not have nursing, Allied Health or other health professions schools
(these are located at UNMC, which is separate from UNL); thus the aforementioned peers are not entirely comparable to UNL in the AAUP data.
- Includes faculty who are tenured, on tenure track, and not on tenure track.
