Folks, As of today, 9/2/13, the Virginia Tech salaries are correct. However, we are finishing up a compensation review and I anticipate there will be changes in the near future. Thanks Herb!

Please take one more look at our agent starting salary chart (see below). If you do not have a "last update" of 2013 please let me know your salaries - or at least that what is listed is correct. Also, if your state land-grant partner has not responded, could you please make a contact and see if we can update? I suspect we have some listed that are out-of-date, giving us some skewed results. I'll send the full spreadsheet in a few days. Have a great labor day weekend!
