According to NEA Today: “Faculty at Historically Black
Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) also tend to be paid less than faculty at
Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs.) For example, full professors at
Florida A&M University (FAMU) earn an average $92,000 a year, making them
the lowest paid among the 11 state universities. In fact, even though FAMU is a
“Research 2: Doctoral Institution,” putting it in the second highest grouping
in the Carnegie classification system, its faculty earn less, on average, than
the highest paid community college faculty in the state.”
The average salary for full professors at Indian River State
College is $98,500.
