Last week The Chronicle of Higher Education published the Almanac of Higher Education 2012, an interactive database that compares professor salaries, graduation rates, tuition and fees, and state and research spending of higher education institutions among the 50 states.
Out of the 50 states, New Mexico is ranked in the bottom 10 for average full-time professor salary and six-year graduation rate, but in the top 10 for lowest full-time student tuition and fees.
According to the almanac, New Mexico is ranked 42nd for full-time professor salary, 45th for six-year graduation rates and 7th for student tuition and fee costs.
