Discrimination by Black Males Revisited: Salary Equity Achieved

Riggs, G. D., & Dwyer, L. (1998). Discrimination by Black Males Revisited: Salary Equity Achieved. American Journal of Economics and Sociology, 57(2), 201-206.

In an earlier article on faculty salary discrimination at a Southern, historically black, public university (SHBU), the authors presented evidence of salary discrimination by black males against other race-sex groups (Riggs and Dwyer 1995). The authors now contrast SHBU’s salary model with the model of Riggs and Dwyer and apply the latter to new data to determine whether SHBU eliminated race and sex discrimination in faculty salaries. After equity adjustments, the evidence suggests that SHBU has eliminated the salary discrimination found by Riggs and Dwyer in their earlier study.
