New federal data show female instructors at Penn State University make about 80 percent of what their male colleagues make. The information, as reported by Spotlight PA, is from the federal Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System, which compiles information from all college campuses. Penn State is also currently facing a lawsuit for wage discrimination. A woman professor at Penn State Abington, who was born in Iran, is suing the university for wage, race, and gender discrimination. She also alleges she raised her concerns with the university but that it didn’t take any action.
