I'm not too familiar with general university employment rates.  Is 5% an average turnover rate for four year universities?


Just wondering if this is normal or outrageous?

Turnover at USM has been about 10% over the years. Last year it was over 15%. The absolute number of people who left last year was about 50% higher than at State and Ole Miss. The most mobile and marketable would be included among those who left. From a statistical perspective, there is unlikely to be a large absolute number of departures a second year in a row (regression to the mean, fished out pond). What seems to be happening now is the departure of key senior or administrative personnel who normally are more stable because of their higher salaries and greater responsibilities. Also, some of the "retirements" you are seeing are people taking jobs elsewhere or quitting early. I am told that Thames likes all this because it means more docile and lowly paid replacements.

Yes, and there are more leaving who just haven't announced it yet.  The pond isn't quite fished out, but it's getting there.
