The Wall Street Journal discusses different methods for evaluating professors, including …"one metric divides their salary by the number of students that they teach. The range is striking. Some nontenured lecturers earn less than $100 for each student they instruct. Other professors are teaching such small classes that their compensation works out to more than $10,000—in a few cases, more than $20,000—per student." One year, I taught 52 students for $2,500 for the entire semester. That means I gave 4 months of instruction for $48 per student.
