In education news, Harvard University president Lawrence Summers is coming under criticism for claiming that men outperform women in math and sciences not because of discriminatory educational practices but because of biological reasons. Summers also claimed that discrimination is no longer a career barrier for female academics. At Harvard, however, women continue to face a greater challenge getting tenured positions. During Summers’ presidency, the number of tenured jobs offered to women has fallen from 36% to 13%. Last year, only four of 32 tenured job openings were offered to women.
