Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="en"> Abstract. Utilizing the human capital framework, the authors apply OLS methods to cross-sectional salary data for 1989-90 for a Southern, historically black, public university (SHBU) to determine whether salary discrimination against other race-sex groups exists when black males hold the top economic power Results indicate that it does.
