Two incompatible sacred values in American universities" Jon Haidt, Hayek Lecture Series, Duke University Department of Political Science, $2016$

Specifically, watch from $46$:$45-1$:$06$:$22$ I think the point of showing this film in class is to make us realize that these issues are real in our modern world. Closing the gender gap$$which includes disparities in leadership, income, employment, and education$$is strongly tied to equal opportunity, which emphasizes that individuals of both sexes should have equal access to resources. The gender gap in education has its origins in cultural biases and discrimination. These challenges must be addressed in order to promote equitable opportunity. The persistent bias against women in the workplace is the root cause of the gender pay gap. Because income inequality affects people's capacity to support themselves financially, fair pay is vital. Because women are underrepresented in leadership roles, diversity and inclusive policies suffer. Therefore, equal access is crucial. Dismantling cultural norms and biases is necessary for achieving true equality of opportunity. When doing research, it is important to remember the adage "correlation does not imply causation" and not assume a direct relationship between variables. Two variables are said to be correlated when they change together yet can be influenced independently by other causes. Researchers should do comprehensive analyses to ensure they do not draw incorrect causal conclusions from correlation.
