CD-ROM: 1993 National Study of Postsecondary Faculty: Public Use Faculty and Institution Files

The faculty universe for NSOPF-93 was expanded to include all those who were designated as faculty, whether or not their responsibilities included instruction, and other (non-faculty) personnel with instructional responsibilities. Under this definition, researchers and administrators and other institutional staff who hold faculty positions, but who do not teach, were included in the sample. Instructional staff without faculty status were also included. In summary, the eligible universe was defined to include: full- and part-time personnel whose regular assignment included instruction; full and part-time individuals with faculty status whose regular assignment did not include instruction; permanent and temporary personnel with any instructional duties, including adjunct, acting, or visiting status; and faculty and instructional personnel on sabbatical leave.
