Mike,
There are ways of finding out faculty salaries for public institutions.
Here in Missouri, the state publishes the "blue" book every year which
lists all state employees, their positions and their salaries. (For some
unknown reason, the "blue" book is pink this year though). There should
be comparable listings in other states.
