White Professor Claims College Pays Black Colleagues Much More Than Him

Tips

A white professor is suing the college where he works for discrimination, claiming some of his Black colleagues make substantially more money than him despite having similar qualifications and experience.

William T. Lavell, 66, who teaches chemistry at Camden County College, filed the lawsuit on March 26, claiming racial bias over the discrepancies in pay between him and other members of staff.

According to the suit, seen by NJ.com, Lavell says he is paid between $45,000 and $50,000 less annually than two Black engineering professors. Lavell found out he is paid less after requesting the salary records under the state's public records law in September.
