In a lot of cases, professorial pay has NOT kept up at state schools. My wife is a tenured stats prof at a mid-ranked state university like the one I attended. She makes far less than she did when she worked in a research position for the Fed. gov't, and less than 1/2 as much as she could make (and has made) in private industry as a data scientist.
