​This link provides mean faculty salaries for full professors, associate professors, assistant professors, and instructors at universities throughout the country. The data are aggregated (but searchable!), so it's not possible to identify mean social work salaries at non-public institutions. However, it may be helpful to people who are negotiating at non-public universities that are not required to report individual faculty salaries publically.
