Written Assignment - Part One & Two

1. Written Assignment - Gender and Income
2. Part One:  Take a simple survey of 10 people.  Ask them if they are aware of the gender wage gap.  If they answer "no", then inform them of the wage difference between men and women on the basis of gender alone.  Record your responses and include them in the submission.

Part Two:  Discuss the social factors involved in the continued discrimination against women in the United States with regard to equal pay for equal work. What social changes must occur if people are to be paid without regard to their gender?  In other words, how do we get rid of the gender wage gap?

Cite your references properly.  You must use the textbook and at least one other scholarly source.  

 These exercises ask students to apply sociological concepts to various topics or scenarios.  Cited references are not required for these assignments, but still recommended.  Proper English composition is expected
