A New Debate Over Disparities in Coaches' Salaries.
Naughton, Jim
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n36 pA35-A36 May 16 1997
A recent study found universities pay substantially higher salaries, sometimes twice as high, to head coaches of men's athletic teams than to head coaches of women's teams. Findings raise questions about how coaches' salaries are set. Some see sex discrimination; others view salary differences as reflecting degree of coach responsibility. Most female coaches head women's teams. (MSE)
