That's a question that isn't easily answered. Cost of living and median salaries vary from region to region. Note that these two terms do not necessarily range together.code:
Cost of Living Area Median family income (% of Nat'l Avg) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Grand Rapids MI $32,049 90 Livonia (Detroit) MI 53,523 100 Framingham (Boston) MA 53,270 117 Albuquerque NM 33,746 82 Springfield MO 27,705 61 Lynnwood (Seattle) WA 35,771 88 Ontario (Los Angeles) CA 38,135 69
A chief projectionist should be able to live comfortably (reasonably) in the local economy and not live paycheck to paycheck or have to work a second job. Part of your question you answered yourself. That person is responsible for overseeing the operation of very expensive equipment and very expensive prints. What is that worth to your institution? Can your institution make up for the increased expense?
