Abstract
This study reflects a historical investigation of faculty salary deter mination in the California Community Colleges before and after collect ive bargaining enabling legislation was enacted in 1975. It attempts t o discover whether measurable differences in unionization lead to meas urable differences in faculty remuneration over five- and seven-year p eriods. In addition, the effects that the local marketplace, faculty a nd institutional characteristics, demand, and ability to pay may have on district-level faculty salaries were considered.
