Abstract
Earnings of white, Puerto Rican, and black female graduates of a New York City vocational school are analyzed for a period of five years after graduation. Puerto Rican and black graduates who complete the same curriculum as whites earn considerably less upon entry into the labor market and thereafter for the next five years. Factors affecting these differences are analyzed. The findings cast doubt on the theory that equalizing training and education of whites and blacks will automatically result in equal job opportunities.
