Re: career racism ?
this sort of epidemiological study always gives me a chuckle when it's been politicised like this. It has some interesting perspectives for psychology though, i guess. it is normal for an individual to have a preference for the familier, it doesn't mean there is a conspiracy against woman and ethnic minoritys.
as for 'affirmative action' ... my mind in two courts about that.
the article seems to work on the premise that people want a career thats directly related to their qualifications, as if there is some linial relationship between them. maths is afterall, a basic skill required for many different career paths.
