Two cornerstones in the fight for equality are the issues of disparity in equal pay and positions of authority between men and women. The University of Pittsburgh is seen as a relatively progressive institution, so in terms of maintaining that equality, how do you think we fare? While women make up just under half of all faculty here at Pitt, they take up only 26% of full time professor positions. Instead, many are associate professors, assistant professors, and lecturers. In terms of salary, most women make about 79% of the salary that their male counterpart earns. While there is an upwards trend on women’s salary, the fact that there even is a disparity means there is still lots of room for improvement.
