Poughkeepsie Journal: Women professors sue Vassar, claim gender-based pay gap at college

“It’s unfortunate that we have to be here today, but standing up for the rights of women is part of why these professors came to teach at Vassar in the first place,” Jessica Ramey Stender, policy director and deputy legal director of Equal Rights Advocates, a co-counsel for the plaintiffs, said in a statement.
