Nov. 19, Friday -- Paula England, professor of sociology and a faculty research affiliate of the Institute for Research on Women and Gender at Stanford University, will address "Does Bad Pay Cause Occupations to Feminize, Does Feminization Reduce Pay?" Her research focuses on gender inequality in labor markets and on how changes in family life are affected by the gender and class systems. A major theme of her work has been that jobs filled largely by women are underpaid relative to their skill levels. England's talk, sponsored by the campus Economy, Justice and Society program, runs 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the Ag History Conference Room, 5214 Social Sciences and Humanities Building on the ºÙºÙÊÓƵ campus.
