Consensus UMKC Data

Institutional Research
Expenditures
1. Changes in the IPEDS Finance report affect the growth in
reported spending for almost all functions after FY08.
2. For this reason growth in Salaries and Benefits is a better
measure of changes in spending.

Decline of Tenured/Tenure Track Faculty
Reporting errors in HR System make the data presented in the IPEDS
database not completely accurate.
For certain years there were significant errors in the reporting for the
Medical school, but there are also errors in reporting for other units.
*Problem is an incongruence between titles and tenure status.
Data presented in IPEDS was verified by Institutional Research as the
data represented in the HR system.

Other Personnel Issues
There was a change in classification in Fall 12 that make the
final data point possibly incomparable with the earlier
ones.
However, Larry Bunce’s analysis of the HR system data
shows an increase of 42 from Fall 06 to Fall 11, which is
very close to the original number reported.
Other Personnel Issues
There are a large number of titles that fit under
“Executive/Administrative/Managerial” on both the academic and
non-academic sides (e.g., Chancellor, Vice Provosts, Deans, Assistant
Deans, Directors, Assistant Directors, Police Chiefs, Coaches, Librarians,
Managers, Project Administrators, Project Directors, etc.).
More analysis will need to be done to determine where this growth
has occurred.
Likewise, any growth in overall employment under Chancellor’s or
Provost’s office will need to be determined through additional
research.
