Allocated Market Pool Committee Overview of Recommendation Process for FY2014 Allocation
The Allocated Market Pool Committee (AMPC) is a joint committee appointed by the BGSU-FA (Joel O’Dorisio, Co-Chair; Steve Demuth; Ray Schuck) and Administration (Bill Balzer, Co-Chair; Julie Barnes; Herb McGrath) to make recommendations to the Provost regarding market-based salary adjustments in FY2014, FY2015, and FY2016. AMPC began meeting on July 11, 2013 and has met regularly over the summer and throughout the fall
- semester. Professional readings and conversations with U Akron informed our discussions. A
consensus agreement was reached on a rational conceptual approach that allowed the committee to reach sound and defensible recommendations for FY2014 prior to November 25, 2013 despite acknowledged limitations in the availability of data. AMPC is committed to addressing known limitations in its work with greater refinement/precision for FY2015 and FY2016.
- 1. The 1.5% market pool allocation amount was based on the FY2013 total faculty salary base
(Main + Firelands), estimated FY2013 salaries for eight faculty for whom last year’s salary information was unavailable, and new faculty hires for AY2013-2014. The total faculty salary base equaled $50,266,654, providing an allocated market pool amount of $753,826 (of the cumulative pool of no less than $1.8M over FY2014, FY2015, and FY2016):
Main campus: FY2013 Salary Base = $47,575,337 Faculty = 727 Firelands campus: FY2013 Salary Base = $2,679,759 Faculty = 51 Total: FY2013 Salary Base = $50,255,096 Total market pool = $753,826 ¡
- 2. After considerable discussion about the pros and cons of different comparison data bases for
market comparators (e.g., CUPA, OK State, IPEDS, HEI, Delaware), AMPC used the 2012- 2013 OK State data set that included average discipline and rank (including NTTF) salaries from faculty at 44 “High Research” comparator schools (including BGSU) that overlapped significantly (69%) with the 45 schools (also including BGSU) selected from 2011 IPEDS data (SECTOR: US Public 4-year and above; INSTITUTIONAL CATEGORY: Degree granting primarily baccalaureate and above; HIGHEST DEGREE: Doctor’s degree – research/scholarship and professional practice + Doctor’s degree – research/scholarship; CARNEGIE CLASSIFICATION: Research universities – High Research Activity; INSTITUTION SIZE: 10,000 – 19,000 + 20,000 and above; DEGREE OF URBANIZATION: Rural + Town + Suburb + Small and Midsize City (note: bold indicates BGSU’s current classification).
- 3. CIP codes were used to match BGSU faculty to external market. Existing CIP code information
