Height a factor in starting pay says Pitt official
University of Pittsburgh labor-relations chief Leland Deck reports that men over six feet earn about 10 percent more on first jobs. He cites 1967 and 1970 Pitt business-school surveys showing height linked pay, with taller graduates commanding higher starting salaries despite grades. He notes few hiring firms assess brains and motivation, relying on height as a quick read, and adds women show similar pay to men of equal height in same roles.
