Almost at Par

UC compares its ladder-rank faculty salaries with those of the "Comparison 8" universities (listed below). According to figures on the agenda of the upcoming Regents meetings, UC salaries were at 99.4% of the comparison 8 as of the last academic year. 

These are salary data comparison. Benefits such as health insurance and pensions are not included. There is a "total remuneration" study underway. Suffice it to say, valuing benefits is more complicated than salaries. And could potentially be more controversial.
