if you want to know the number of assistant profs do a query like this:

no_of_asstprofs =
Faculty.objects.filter(job_title='AssistantProf').count()

do not store this in the database - call it when you need it. If you
have a counter, you need to maintain it - increment when adding, reduce
when deleting - which also means setting up signals to adjust the
counter when a model is changed. A huge waste of time and energy.
