Resolution 90-91-22

Housing Assistance; Salary Compression

Whereas the expensive housing costs in Los Angeles are sometimes cited as a reason for setting the salaries of new hires above those of existing faculty, thus making it difficult to achieve equitable salary scales, Therefore Be It Resolved that, on a university-wide basis, housing assistance from the university should be separated from base salary, and, Be It Further Resolved that on a university-wide basis, the program to provide housing assistance should be separated from the regular compensation pool, and, Be It Further Resolved that salaries of new and continuing faculty should be set so as to avoid inequities, particularly salary compression and inversion.
