Princeton University to pay female professors almost $1 million in back pay in gender pay discrimination settlement

Princeton University, one of the nation's most elite colleges, has agreed to pay close to $1 million in back pay to female professors following a Department of Labor investigation into pay discrimination.

The Ivy League institution will pay $925,000 in back pay and some $250,000 in future wages as part of an "early resolution conciliation agreement," theThe Department of Labor's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs found that between 2012 and 2014, 106 women in full professor positions at Princeton were paid less than their male counterparts, per the press release.

While not admitting liability in the settlement, Princeton University agreed to make various changes. For example, Princeton leaders will conduct pay equity trainings for all staff, as well as statistical analyses to see if other disparities currently exist. and found an 11% wage gap between similarly qualified female and male professors, pointing to a larger problem in academia.

"Despite our confidence in the merits of our position and our belief that we were in full compliance with both the letter and the spirit of the law, Princeton agreed to resolve the dispute to avoid lengthy and costly litigation and its impact on the faculty and the University," Chang said.
