ABSTRACT
In this article, recent salary data are reported from a survey of hospitality educators’ compensation. As with the 2008 and 2012 studies, data were collected from many regions of the world (all results presented in US$ for analytical purposes). Comparisons are made between the 2008, 2012, and recent salary studies and changes are highlighted, most of which are discussed in light of the deep, worldwide recession and economic recovery that occurred during the 2008–2018 time period. Data are presented by faculty rank, gender and type of institution, among other variables.
