A lot of public school teachers make less than that too, $75,000 is the average.
According to the the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as quoted from the American Association of University Professors 2008-09 survey, the average salary for professors was $108,749; associate professors earned $76,147; assistant professors earned $63,827; instructors earned $45,977; and lecturers earned $52,436. That's without benifts and that is for dealing with college age students who presumably want to be there.
I always find it funny that none of the people who think teachers are getting such a great deal ever go into teaching. I wouldn't deal with a bunch of snotty nosed brats every day for twice what they are making.
