Other than myself, the only employees at my company are very well paid women. So, I have utterly no idea what on earth you think I pay my employees or how you have come to the conclusion you have about my company. I can't "quit my job". I own this company.

Secondly, my response is to THIS story in THIS thread, and the excuse you posted that "it's not the students".

If you would like to discuss pay inequity, that's fine. Start a thread about it.

However, most of these "not the students" have been in this sorority and in this college for several years. The officers are typically seniors, who have known darn well FOR YEARS that their organization - which leads, yes, to the types of social networks which men leverage to GET higher pay than women - does not accept black people.
