  • Selected Characteristics of Full-Time Professional Staff: Community Colleges, Fall 1980. Administrators Age College Faculty Community Colleges Educational Attainment Females Full Time Faculty Males Personnel Data Professional Personnel Salaries Student Personnel Workers Tables (Data) Teacher Characteristics Tenure Trend Analysis Two Year Colleges Data collected in Fall 1980 were analyzed to determine the academic background, tenure, sex, age, and average salaries of the full-time professional staff employed by six Hawaii community colleges. Five personnel categories were investigated: (1) institutional support, including professional staff in the provost's office, business affairs division, and operation and maintenance; (2) academic support, including the dean of instruction, the director of public service and instruction, and library and educational media staff; (3) student services, including the dean of students and personnel involved in counseling, student activities, student health, student support, and admissions and records; (4) public service, including those involved in apprenticeship and community service programs; and (5) instruction, including department chairpersons and faculty. Selected findings reveal that the instructional category had the highest percentage of staff (73%), followed by student services (13%), academic support (8%), institutional support (3%), and public service (3%). Of the 470 full-time instructors, 37% were female, 54% taught general education courses, and 66% were tenured. The average instructor's salary of $21,850 was higher than the national average of $20,060 for instructors at comparable institutions. The study report presents findings by campus for each personnel category and provides data for 1978 through 1980. (JP)
