• oSame as pay for summer school.
• o1000/credit hour, not a % based on current salary, which disproportionately increases higher salaries.
• oShould be part of their teaching load calculation, same as undergraduate.

o $4500 to $5000 (At my prior institution, I earned $3000 per undergraduate course overload, and that was almost a decade ago).

QUESTION 24: How much per undergraduate-level course do you think faculty should be compensated for overload pay?

Thirty-eight of the 67 faculty members (56.7%) responded with actual dollar amounts per course or per credit hour. The mean recommended compensation for teaching an overload course at the undergraduate level was $3,121. The median was slightly lower at $2,850. The modal amount was $3,000 per course. Figure 5 presents the distribution of these responses.

Recommended Compensation for Overload Undergraduate Courses

FIGURE 5. As with the graduate level overloads, recommended salaries for undergraduate overloads ranged from $300 to $10,000 per course. Twenty-nine faculty members (43.3%) of the total 67 respondents) declined to respond.

TWELVE FACULTY MEMBERS RESPONDED WITH THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS:

• oSee what other universities do. do not reinvent the wheel.
• o10% of base salary.
• o6 credit hours.
