unchanged in the last year. Women's earnings were 76.5 percent
of men's in 2012, compared to 77.0 percent in 2011,
according to Census statistics released September 17, 2013 based
on the median earnings of all full-time, year-round workers. In
2012 men's earnings were $49,398 and women's were $37,791, a
difference of $11,607. See the website for much more; including links to many AAUW
