Each point is one employment record, positioned by annual base salary adjusted for local cost of living (COL-adjusted per campus before pooling). Departments are sorted by median salary, highest first. Departments with fewer than 20 full-time employees across all CU campuses are excluded. Box shows IQR; whiskers extend to 1.5×IQR fence; center line is median. Scroll horizontally to see all departments. Same-named departments at different campuses are pooled into a single column.
