University System of Georgia Executive/Administrative/Managerial Staff Per FTE Student as Reported to IPEDS FY 2000 Background A frequently asked question related to the efficiency and effectiveness of higher education institutions is: "Are there too many administrators?" Because institutions vary widely in mission, level and mix of programs, size and composition of the student body, and other relevant characteristics, there is no single standard by which to answer that question. One indicator of relative administrative staffing that has recently been reviewed by the University System of Georgia (USG) is the ratio of full-time equivalent (FTE) students to administrators. Up to a point, the higher the ratio, the "better" an institution's relative number of administrators is considered to be. Underlying this indicator is the question, unanswerable by data, of what the point of balance should be to effectively and efficiently manage an institution. The FY 2000 ratios for the University System's four-year and two-year institutions were compared with the corresponding four-year public and two-year public average ratios of the other Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) states. USG four-year public institutions were found to have the second lowest average ratio in SREB, and USG two-year colleges had the lowest average ratio in SREB for those respective categories of institutions. Thus, Georgia has relatively fewer FTE students per administrator, or conversely, relatively more administrators in relation to enrollment than other SREB states. It is important to note that, although the number of FTE students enrolled does provide a rough but consistent comparative measure of the need for administrative support, there is no single reliable indicator of the ideal number of administrators needed from institution to institution. While institutions with larger enrollments (and/or more programs, facilities, off-campus locations, etc.) may need more administrators, there are economies of scale that benefit larger institutions and disadvantage smaller ones. For example, the same basic complement of "executive, administrative and managerial" positions may be as necessary and efficient for an institution with 2,500 FTE students as for one with 4,000 FTE. However, using the FTE per administrator ratio to compare those institutions would suggest that the smaller institution has "too many" administrators. With these caveats in mind, this paper examines where the data to support the SREB comparisons originate and how University System institutions compare with one another using the same data. How National Data Are Collected The federal government collects educational data from colleges and universities in the U.S. through a set of surveys administered by IPEDS (Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System). The IPEDS Fall Staff Survey is administered only in odd-numbered calendar years. A March 2004 Page 1 of 5 portion of that survey replaced the discontinued Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO-6) survey. Although the data for some IPEDS surveys are generated by the University System for the institutions, the Fall Staff data are reported directly to IPEDS by the institutions themselves. In reporting Fall Staff data, each institution is responsible for interpreting the IPEDS Fall Staff instructions and reporting its staff positions accordingly. The IPEDS instructions categorize full-time institutional employees in fall term into one of the following seven groups: full-time faculty; executive, administrative and managerial; other professionals (support service); technical and paraprofessionals; clerical and secretarial; skilled crafts; and service/maintenance. The category of interest here is "executive, administrative and managerial." The FY 2000 IPEDS Fall Staff instructions for reporting "executive/ administrative/managerial" positions read as follows: Report all persons whose assignments require primary (and major) responsibility for management of the institution, or a customarily recognized department or subdivision thereof. Assignments require the performance of work directly related to management policies or general business operations of the institution, department or subdivision, etc. It is assumed that assignments in this category customarily and regularly require the incumbent to exercise discretion and independent judgment and to direct the work of others. Report in this category all officers holding titles such as president, vice president, dean, director, or the equivalent, as well as officers subordinate to any of these administrators with such titles as associate dean, assistant dean, executive officer of academic departments (department heads, or the equivalent) if their principal activity is administrative. NOTE Supervisors of professional employees are included here, while supervisors of nonprofessional employees (technical, clerical, craft, and service/ maintenance force) are to be reported within the specific categories of the personnel they supervise. There is considerable potential for inconsistent interpretation of these instructions. The single category, "executive, administrative and managerial," encompasses a very wide range of positions, from the institutional CEO to the managers of small administrative units. Although the president and vice presidents are clearly institutional executives, it is less certain that every institution would report the bookstore manager and similar positions in the same category, i.e., as "central to the management of the institution." Another judgment required by the instructions that could easily vary by institution is whether a dean's or a department chair's "principal activity is administrative." Similarly, a manager who supervises nonprofessional employees may have greater responsibility than one who supervises fewer professional employees and has a smaller budget, but the instructions state that the former should not be reported in the "executive, administrative and managerial" section of the Fall Staff Survey. Nevertheless, it is quite possible that both types of managers are reported in the "executive, administrative and managerial" category by some institutions. How USG Institutions Determine Executive/Administrative/Managerial Status Each USG job has been assigned a position identifier code called a "b-code." These codes were established in the 1970s, and although codes were added to the b-code system over the last three March 2004 Page 2 of 5 decades, few were removed or revised. For reporting purposes, University System b-codes were "mapped" to one of the six job category codes used in the annual EEO report. The EEO code 1 category was also called "executive/administrative/managerial." A list of the b-codes/positions mapped to that category is attached (Table 1). (It is important to note that not all occupations exist, or are filled, at every institution, and therefore would not be reported.) When the transition was made from EEO to IPEDS reporting, the EEO-1 b-code map continued to be used, although in the last few years there have been questions about the correspondence of the EEO-1 b-code map to the specific requirements of IPEDS.1 In August 2003, the Office of Strategic Research and Analysis surveyed USG institutions to determine how they reported positions in the "executive, administrative and managerial" category of their FY 2000 IPEDS Fall Staff Surveys. The results showed that USG institutions did not report staff data in a uniform way. Some reported all EEO-1 b-codes, and some edited the list of b-codes, i.e., removed or added positions, based on knowledge of the actual position or incumbent, as summarized below. Twenty of the institutions in this analysis reported all EEO-1 positions that were filled at their institution to IPEDS. 13 reported selected sub-sets of the EEO-1 b-codes or additional b-codes. One institution was not able to determine how the survey was completed in 1999 due to personnel changes since then. A logical assumption would be that institutions reporting all EEO-1 b-codes would have small ratios, i.e., they would have over-reported administrators. However, analysis of the FTE student/administrator ratios in Table 2 suggests that the method of reporting "executive, administrative and managerial" staff to IPEDS does not, by itself, appear to be responsible for any over-reporting of those positions: A larger proportion (58 percent) of the institutions that reported a selection of b-codes from the EEO-1 list had lower-than-average (i.e., less desirable) FTE/administrator ratios than those reporting all EEO-1 b-codes to IPEDS (53 percent). Five of the six largest USG institutions reported all EEO-1 positions to IPEDS, and only two of those five had lower-than-average FTE/administrator ratios. How USG Institutions Compare Internally and with the Other SREB States in the Ratio of FTE Students to Administrators Colleges and universities in other states are subject to the same potential reporting inconsistencies as those discussed above. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the data on "executive, administrative and managerial" positions in the other SREB states also contain inconsistencies, although there is no way to determine those institutions' exact reporting 1 Largely in response to those questions, a special USG human resources committee has reviewed and converted the previous b-code system. B-codes were grouped into larger b-categories. The new codes are designated BCATs, and were developed to comply with the IPEDS Fall Staff and other survey instructions. March 2004 Page 3 of 5 practices. Nevertheless, Table 3, which has been re-calculated to insure that both tables in this analysis are based on the same data and assumptions, shows that the USG four-year public institutions have the second-lowest average FTE to administrator ratio among the SREB states, and that USG two-year public institutions have the lowest average ratio in SREB (where a low ratio means more administrators relative to enrollment than a higher ratio).2 The following are highlights of Table 2, which contains internal comparisons of FTE students/administrator ratios for the USG four-year institutions and USG two-year institutions: 3 USG four-year institutions have an average of 56.0 FTE students per executiveadministrative-managerial staff, and USG two-year colleges have a corresponding average of 83.3 FTE/administrator. The comparative SREB average ratios are 81.8 (public four-year) and 199.4 (public two-year). Seventeen of the 32 USG institutions included in this comparative analysis, or 53 percent, had 1999-2000 student/administrator ratios that were higher (better) than the respective System averages, i.e., 11 of 19 four-year institutions (58 percent) and 6 of 13 two-year colleges (46 percent).4 In addition, only two of the six largest USG institutions have a lower-than-average FTE student/administrator ratio. Thus, the relatively low USG vs. SREB ratios are not due to one or two outliers in the USG, skewing the whole System average. 38.5 percent (5 of 13) of the four-year institutions that reported all EEO-1 positions to IPEDS, rather than an edited subset of EEO-1 positions, and 50 percent (3 of 6) of the two-year colleges that reported in the same manner had lower (less desirable) FTE/administrator ratios than the respective USG averages. Even larger proportions, 3 of 5 four-year institutions (60 percent) and 4 of 7 two-year colleges (57 percent), than reported selected subsets of the EEO-1 b-codes also had lower-than-average ratios. Conclusions Although the potential for inconsistency in interpreting the IPEDS Fall Staff instructions exists for all public colleges and universities in SREB, the 1999-2000 IPEDS data published by SREB show that University System four-year and two-year public institutions, collectively, have relatively fewer FTE students per administrator, or relatively more administrators, than peers in the other 15 SREB states. The same data also show anomalies within the USG. For example, several pairs of institutions with similar enrollments had FTE/administrator ratios that differed 2 Tables 2 and 3 use 1999-2000 enrollment and staff data, and both include Dalton State College and Macon State College as four-year institutions because that is the convention followed by both IPEDS and the SREB Fact Book, 2003. 3 FTE student data are from "FTE Enrollment, Public Colleges, by College 1999-2000" on the SREB web site at http://www.sreb.org/main/EdData/DataExch/dataexchindex.asp#Full-time; administrator data by state (Table 3) are from Table 69 in the SREB Fact Book, and 1999-2000 administrator data by USG institution (Table 2) were obtained with the IPEDS web-based Peer Analysis Tool (IPEDS is the original source of the staff data published by SREB). 4 This analysis follows the SREB practice of excluding "specialized institutions," i.e., Medical College of Georgia and Southern Polytechnic State University. March 2004 Page 4 of 5 by 64 to 328 percent. Another institution reported just five "executive, administrative and managerial" positions, compared to an average of 31 administrators reported by six comparable institutions. Within the University System, there is no apparent link between the method of reporting "executive, administrative and managerial" positions (i.e., reporting all EEO-1 positions or a selected subset) and the resulting ratio of FTE per administrator. More than half (53 percent) of the USG institutions studied in this report had higher (better) than the comparable System average FTE/administrator ratios, and the two reporting methods were randomly distributed among institutions with both lower-than-average and higher-than-average ratios. However, since the data on which the SREB comparative ranking is based were reported to IPEDS, USG human resources officers undertook a comprehensive review and redesign of the University System's job classification system. A major motivation for that project was more accurate and consistent reporting of staff to IPEDS, particularly executive, administrative and managerial positions. Therefore, the IPEDS Fall Staff Survey instructions and definitions served as the primary guide as that committee developed the new USG job classification codes. The revised classification system was adopted by the Board of Regents at the April 2003 Board meeting. Test runs of the IPEDS Fall Staff data using the revised coding system have produced a higher executive, administrative and managerial count at some institutions and a lower count at others, but for the University System as a whole, that category is approximately 16 percent lower than the corresponding total reported to IPEDS in 2001. While that decrease in executive, administrative and managerial positions has resulted from a reclassification of positions rather than a quantitative decrease in positions defined identically from 2001 to 2003, the design of the new system and the rigor of assigning the new classification codes supports the assumption that the current numbers are accurate in relation to the IPEDS definitions. It is also anticipated that the 2003 data will improve the ranking of the USG in this measure among SREB states.
