Is the Wage Gap Changing? College-educated women earn 5 percent less the first year out of school than their male peers. Ten years later, even if they keep working on par with those men, the women earn 12 percent less. In 2010 women who worked full time, year round, still only earned 77 percent of what men earned. The median earnings for women were $36,931 compared to $47,715 for men, and neither real median earnings nor the female-to-male earnings ratio have increased since 2009. Source: White House Council on Women and Girls April 2012 Report, Bureau of Labor Statistics 2010, and Center for American Progress Year Percent of Median Earnings of Men
