An in-depth study to assess the possible gender pay gap among faculty at the University of South Dakota is set to begin within the coming weeks.

A seven-member faculty committee made up of four women and three men will be appointed by President James Abbott by the end of this week or early next, at which point the committee will begin taking a closer look at the pay differences — if any — between male and female faculty. 

This website allows you to go through different departments and programs in the College of Arts Sciences and compare the salaries of faculty. The site also includes information like education levels and awards and honors.
