Study: LSU pays men substantially more than women of same rank, in some cases $20K-plus
Male LSU faculty earn substantially more — $20,000 to $30,000 in some cases depending on the college where they work — than females of the same rank, according to the early findings of a study that compares salaries of the flagship’s nearly 1,300 faculty members.
