---Not available. \1\Includes faculty members with the title of professor, associate professor, assistant professor, instructor, lecturer, assisting professor, adjunct professor, or interim professor (or the equivalent). Excluded are graduate students with titles such as graduate or teaching fellow who assist senior faculty. \2\Estimated on the basis of enrollment. \3\Because of revised survey methods, data are not directly comparable with figures for years prior to 1987. \4\Data are for 4-year and 2-year degree-granting institutions that were participating in Title IV federal financial aid programs. NOTE: Data for 1970 through 1995 are for 4-year and 2-year institutions that were accredited by an agency or organization that was recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, or recognized directly by the Secretary of Education. For methodological details on estimates, see National Center for Education Statistics, Projections of Education Statistics to 2000. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
