Negotiating: why women don't ask and what to do.
Women graduate students trooped into economics professor Dr. Linda Babcock's office at Carnegie Mellon University PA, where she directed the PhD program. They wanted to know why men students had been assigned to teach classes, while the women were merely teaching assistants.
"How dare they do that to women?" Babcock asked the associate dean, her husband. He replied that every man in the graduate program had come to him requesting a chance to teach.
Women students were shocked. They assumed an email would have been sent around if teaching opportunities were available. The men asked; the women waited to be asked.
