"Coming out of uni/grad school, male and female salaries are equal in comparable fields."

Given that there's more female that graduate now, there's still bias in the process, just not the bias people hope to find.

In STEM? Far fewer women graduate with CS degrees than men. I think that percentage is actually declining.

Have a source? My understanding is that there's been an overall decline in stem degrees; meaning that, if there's a gap, it's not due to gender bias or a lack of opportunities for a given gender. Basically, I don't buy it, but happy to be proven wrong too.
