The pay, grant, and teaching patterns elsewhere on this site sit inside a changing structure. This shows the share of teaching faculty holding a tenure-track professor rank (Assistant, Associate, or Full) rather than a lecturer, instructor, adjunct, or other contingent title — a structural shift that shapes who teaches, who is paid what, and who has security, independent of any individual.

“Teaching faculty” is everyone in the Teaching Faculty title category drawing pay that fiscal year; “tenure-track” is those holding an Assistant / Associate / Full Professor rank (adjunct and visiting professor variants are counted as contingent). Because it rests on how each institution titles its instructors, read the trend, not the exact level; much contingent teaching (graduate assistants, some part-time instructors) may also sit outside this category entirely. Individual security, benefits, and appointment terms are not in the data.
