Public colleges must share pay data

Beginning July 1, 2026, the Commission collects pay and employer-paid benefits data every year. Public colleges must send standardized electronic files for administrators, full-time faculty, and adjunct or other part-time instructors. Reports must include average pay by group and classification, rank, and by two-year or four-year school. They must also list employer-paid benefits in total and per employee, full-time or part-time status, and year-over-year changes. The Commission posts aggregated, searchable, downloadable data online and publishes an annual report by December 31 each year. Public data excludes names and other personal information, and the Commission may set formats and procedures.
