Interesting study on gender bias to start the day...
When asked to rate an imaginary student based on only a single-page resume, science professors considered the male student more competent, and said they were more likely to hire him for a laboratory position or agree to mentor him.The catch? The two resumes were identical, except on half the resumes the student’s name was John, and on the other half, it was Jennifer.
