An editorial compares US and Soviet teaching pay, arguing the Soviet system uses capitalist incentives to attract and reward professors. It notes US faculty earn little above average workers, while Russian professors earn about eight times a typical salary, gaining prestige and upper-class status within a perceived classless society. The piece cites McGraw-Hill data and urges the US to learn from Russia’s incentive approach. It concludes with a businessman’s view that teaching remains undervalued until salaries rise enough to entice entrants.
