Professors usually earn the most and instructors the least. Professors and associate professors typically have tenure, but associate professors need to complete additional scholarship in order to attain the high- est rank, such as publishing research or writing a book. Associate professors are on the tenure track, whereas instructors teach full time without pursuing tenure. Last year, Loyola’s 199 professors earned an average of $121,854; 171 as- sociate professors earned an average of $90,722; 108 assistant professors earned $79,125; and 179 instructors earned $64,374. These figures do not include salaries at the medical school. Pelissero said these figures reflect nine-month salaries and do not include the additional 28 percent that Loyola kicks in for benefits, such as health and dental insurance. These benefits are given to faculty of all ranks. He added that most of the money for salaries comes from student tuition. Some students, such as senior Zach DeCoster, had sticker shock upon hear - ing how much professors make. “I think that’s pretty high for a pro- fessor to be making that kind of money,” said the exercise physiology major. “That’s doctor salary to me. That’s an excellent salary for an educator.” Athletic Director Calhoun celebrates one-year anniversary by Brendan Bond [email protected] It’s been 12 months since Loyola announced the signing of a new ath- letic director. For M. Grace Calhoun, Ph.D., her first year has exceeded expectations, but also had some rough spots. Change is not always easy, but Calhoun’s arrival has signaled change for the athletic department. Change has already happened in the turnover of personnel and future change will happen with the push for the building of a fieldhouse. “I had a past mentor who was famous for one-liners,” Calhoun said. “He would always say to me, ‘Grace, everyone wants progress but few want change.’ And when you think about it, it really is so telling because to make progress, any leader has got to make difficult decisions.” The difficult decisions Calhoun has had to deal with include the turnover at head coaching positions in multiple sports and the dismissal of members of the volleyball team. “The two toughest things any ath- letic director has to do are part ways with student-athletes or coaches,” Calhoun said. “[The volleyball situa- tion] was one notable example. That was an incredibly difficult situation because, on the one hand, we are try- ing to move a program forward and do right by the team and the department, but on the other hand you’re trying to do right by the students and you’re always trying to strike that balance.” Moving both teams and the de- partment forward is at the heart of what Calhoun says she is trying to accomplish as athletic director. She wants every team across the board to be competing for conference champi- onships, but she knows that success comes with a price. She acknowledged that she knows it’s hard to watch sports that have new coaches this year and are rebuilding the programs, especially in men’s bas- ketball, women’s soccer and women’s volleyball. But she is pleased with the foundations that each are laying down for the future. “We’re in a time where we’re used to instant gratification and it’s tempting to do the things that give you success immediately,” Calhoun acknowledged. “But what I have to keep considering is how we build [programs] correctly for sustained success. Oftentimes that means you have to take steps backwards before you can go forward.” Calhoun expressed disappoint- ment in the games where student turnout was low and also in the games where the rebuilding basketball team see CALHOUN page 15 Loyola Athletic Department/Steve Woltmann On Nov. 4, 2011, university presi- dent the Rev. Michael Garanzini, S.J., announced Loyola would soon host a guest of world renown. Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and spiritual leader of Tibet, His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso will visit campus on Thursday, April 26, to speak on interfaith collaboration. Since that announcement, a co- ordinating committee comprising university administrators and faculty members has labored to finalize pro- gram details. The Dalai Lama will come to the Gentile Arena for two events. Ac- cording to new information from the chairs of the committee, the after - noon program will be exclusively for members of the Loyola community. Tickets for the event will be available in late March and students will have first pick, according to the committee chairs. Depending on seating location, ticket prices will range from $10-$100. The morning event, organized by the Tibet Center of Chicago, will be open to the public. Lorraine Snyder, special assistant to the president of the university and one of the co-chairs of the committee said students will be able to buy tickets four days before anyone else. “Giving students early and exclu- sive access to purchase tickets is a priority,” she added. After student sales, the remain- der of the 3,800 available tickets will go on sale to other members of the Loyola community, said Marian Claffey, assistant provost for administration of Loyola and the other chair of the committee. This includes faculty, staff, alumni, members of university board of trustees, the governing board of the university and members of the University president the Rev. Mi- chael J. Garanzini, S.J., discussed the value of a Loyola education in his bi- annual State of the University Address Tuesday. In his assessment of what made Loyola worth its $32,000-a-year pricetag, he noted improvements the university has made lately, as well as changes he believes should be made to increase the value of students’ time in college. Here are the top 10 points Garanzini made in his hour-long address at the Water Tower Campus: Internship requirement In his list of improvements to academic life at the university, Garanzini proposed the idea of making an intern- ship a university requirement for all students. “I think we live in a city where they’re readily available. They should be,” Garanzini said. “We certainly have enough alums out there in every field and endeavor in this community. We ought to build an internship program that’s required because once you do work, you discover you get offers. Then people will complete their degree in four years and get a full-time job.” Double major worth it? Garanzini also discussed the trouble Loyola students seem to have with graduating in four years. He said he believes one of the root causes is the high number of students pursuing more than one degree. His suggestion? Students should evaluate whether or not they need to have more than one major. “We should take a serious look at the double major. I know this is heresy in the student world, and I’m also going to be heretical for the faculty as well, but the double major. . .I’m not sure anyone has proved its value,” Garanzini said.

The difficult decisions Calhoun has had to deal with include the turnover at head coaching positions in multiple sports and the dismissal of members of the volleyball team.

On Nov. 4, 2011, university presi-dent the Rev. Michael Garanzini, S.J., announced Loyola would soon host a guest of world renown. Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and spiritual leader of Tibet, His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso will visit campus on Thursday, April 26, to speak on interfaith collaboration.

DALAI: Most tickets will be $10-15university’s council of regents, who serve as an advisory council to uni-versity president, the Rev. Michael Garanzini, S.J.

Ticket pricing will have a five-tiered structure. Tickets for the upper bowl bleacher seating of the arena will go on sale for $10; tickets to the lower bowl, seat-backed area will be $15. Claffey said that the majority of tickets, close to 3,000, will be within these price brackets.

Snyder noted that while students can purchase tickets for seating in any location, pricing for main-floor seat-ing will be higher than arena seating. There will be about 350 seats available at $25 for the back half of the main-floor; it will be $50 for the front half. Snyder said that less than 200 seats in the first four rows nearest the stage will cost $100.

Community members will be limited to two tickets each and stu-dents cannot use Rambler Bucks to purchase them, Snyder said.

SALARY: vary by college, departmentOne tenured professor who wished

to remain anonymous said that, while pay is decent, longtime professors at the university receive smaller raises each year due to a “nationwide prob-lem” called compression. According to the American Association of Univer-sity Professors (AAUP), a compressed salary occurs when a faculty member is paid less than 7.5 percent above the average pay of someone in the same department who ranks below them.

“Does [the current salary] allow faculty members to live? Yeah, we live like middle-class people,” he said. “I think many of us own homes and drive a car that’s less than 12 years old, so I think it’s okay, but I think it could be better.”

While the professor sees flaws within the pay system, he acknowledged that the university has continued giving faculty raises and works to stay at the 60th percentile of other universities.

“Am I making enough money? No, but you ask that of anybody and they’re going to tell you that. I have no particular grievance.”

Compared to its own Windy City neighbors, Loyola falls in the middle of the salary pack, with University of Chicago and Northwestern University at the top of the list. On average, faculty at University of Chicago rake in more than $136,000 for nine months of work, with full professors garnering roughly $190,000. While Northwestern’s faculty average was slightly higher at $137,000, professors earned roughly $20,000 less than their counterparts at U. Chicago. University of Illinois-Chicago faculty also earned slightly more than Loyola, with an average of $92,000.

Loyola’s faculty did, however, earn a bit more than one of its nearest neighbors. DePaul’s faculty earned $87,800 (about $2,000 less than Loyola faculty).

The schools’ data is collected each year by the College and University

continued from page 1

Professional Association (CUPA). The AAUP then translates the figures into an annual report that compares the salary breakdown of schools across the nation. While the survey is not consid-ered a perfect barometer of salary (at Northwestern, for example, the data excludes clinical faculty at the medical school), it’s viewed as a good approxima-tion of where salaries fall.

Pelissero said that Loyola’s budget review team annually compares faculty salaries with those of a “benchmark” group of other Jesuit universities and private urban institutions. After looking at these, Loyola makes adjustments in order to stay competitive in the market for educators.

“Every year we look at average salaries and what the 60th percentile is for faculty salaries in these peer institu-tions,” Pelissero said, citing DePaul and Marquette universities as two that fall in the comparison group. “Where we see we are losing ground or are not at where we should be, then we have to infuse some additional funds [into faculty salaries].”

In the past, Loyola hasn’t kept up as well. Pelissero said that between 2004 and 2006, the university made a “sig-nificant adjustment” to faculty salaries and put an additional $5 million into the budget to stay on par with other universities and the marketplace.

Now, the university is above the 60th percentile of its “benchmark” group and may even increase its goal to

stay at or above the 70th percentile of the others, Pelissero noted.

While it’s a large chunk of change coming predominantly from student tuition, Pelissero said that these higher salaries will benefit students.

“It’s a function of our society and the higher education environment that, if we want to deliver a high-quality education to our students, we have to fairly compensate our faculty,” Pelissero said, “and that’s what we do.”

Still, junior Iuri Chang isn’t con-vinced that high faculty salaries benefit students.

“It kind of seems like they’re making you buy your degree, not earn it,” said the 23-year-old English and economics major.

Salaries aren’t uniform across the board. Both Pelissero and a Northwest-ern provost said that it’s not uncommon for a professor in one discipline to earn far less than a professor in another.

A document provided by Pelissero demonstrated how salaries vary by discipline. The average associate pro-fessor salary was lowest in the School of Education, at $75,812 in 2010. In the School of Communication it was $81,646 and in the School of Business it was $113,169. The highest average salary for an associate professor was $138,821 in the School of Law.

“There’s students who think they have to have double and even triple majors, and I’m not sure that that’s even neces-sary, especially if it’s going to keep you here longer than four years.”

Cutting back on degree requirements

Another way Garanzini proposed increasing the four-year graduation rate is decreasing the number of credit hours required for individual majors. “We’ve done our best to corral the Core curriculum to 45 hours. I think we have to hold down on incremental growth in degree requirements,” Garanzini said. “We’ve had departments that required up to 72 hours. Seventy-two hours in a field is called an MA [Master of Arts] degree on top of your major. It shouldn’t be called a bachelor’s degree, and after the five or six years it takes to complete that major, you ought to get an MS [Master of Science] or an MA from us, especially since you paid for the last 35 hours.”

Improving academic advisingGaranzini recognized that many

Loyola students don’t receive the aca-demic advising they deserve. “There are too many students who are getting to their senior year and still trying to do all their own advising and discovering that they’ve missed things,” he said.

Hotel near Loyola’s Lake Shore Campus

Toward the end of his speech, Ga-ranzini briefly mentioned plans for a 100 to 120-bed hotel at the corner of West Albion Avenue and North Sheridan Road. “We’d like to do a hotel up there. We have a lot of visitors to campus, par-ents come all year long, so between that and other visitors like academic confer-ences, we’d like to get that hotel there,” Garanzini said. He also mentioned plans for hotel rooms and conference facilities at Baumhart Hall.

“We’ll be taking a couple of floors of Baumhart and making that hotel rooms and conference space so we can support a conference program down here as well,” he said.

Students dissatisfied with faculty attention

Every year, freshmen and seniors take part in the National Survey of Stu-dent Engagement (NSSE). According to Garanzini, last year’s senior survey found that “students appreciate the aca-demic challenge, the campus is getting more supportive and the collaborative learning seems to be going up here, but students would still like more interac-tion with their faculty.”

Financial aid woesGaranzini discussed a number of

issues Loyola students face in financ-ing their education. “We are seeing the

contraction of the economy around us. Students have less money to spend, so they’re getting out of here faster. They just don’t have the money to stay around,” he said. “What we’re doing is basically driving the middle class out of the market. There’s this huge middle class that is worried about the $32,000 tuition bill at Loyola.” Garanzini also noted that 34 percent of students are eligible for Pell Grants, which are awarded to “the lowest group of students socioeconomically.”

Loyola has a higher percentage of Pell-eligible students than any other Jesuit university.

Soon more Loyola students may have to carry around reusable water bottles. The USGA is pushing to end the sale of bottled water on campus and hopes a referendum on the upcoming March ballot will show student support for it.

“This is one of the biggest issues USGA has ever worked on,” said ju-nior Julia Poirier, chairperson of the Unified Student Government Associa-tion’s Justice Committee.

“I would like to see [bottled water] gone by fall 2012, but being more realis-tic, it’s probably going to be the spring of 2013 if everything goes accordingly,” added Poirier, a 20-year-old human services and communication major.

For the ban to take effect, students would have to show their support for it on the upcoming March ballot. On March 27 and 28, when students can vote for their USGA representatives for fall 2012, a referendum will appear on the ballot allowing them to express their opinions on ending bottled water sales.

Poirier said the effort to end the sale of bottled water on campus is a student-inspired movement and that student support for the ban has been crucial to USGA’s efforts. Even though USGA passed legislation on Dec. 6, 2011, to end the sale of bottled water, the student govern-ment still needs the approval of the administration to enforce the ban. Support has also included the efforts of the Student Environmental Alli-ance’s “Think Outside the Bottle” campaign.

“The administration loves work-ing with the students and they’ll do anything if they know we’re in support of it,” Poirier said.

The referendum is designed to engage the student body, she added.

“It really just comes down to the students having another opportunity to share their voice,” Poirier said. “It’s really making them more interactive with USGA and more interactive as a whole campus-wide movement.”

Dr. Robert Kelly, vice president for student development, is in the process of forming the Loyola Dining Services Steering Committee to foster communication between the student body, the administration and Aramark, Loyola’s dining service provider. Kelly will be chair of the group and said that, while faculty, staff and Aramark will serve on the committee, the majority of members will be students. There will be representation from the Residential and Dining Services Committee, Resi-dential Life, Conference Services, the Student Environmental Alliance and other university groups who support a bottled water ban.
