#2I don't see how they got that information from the linked Bloomberg source. There is this information about a gender gap though: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-10-20/the-real-... What I'm mainly trying to figure out is if this is the mean (possibly affected by a few outliers) or a median. The gender pay gap is visible in the median.

#3The title is disingenuous. It said [Will] and what fields is the writer referring to? And then it proceeded to,
Thankfully the study wasn’t all bad for non-white business school grads. In three industries — real estate, manufacturing, and government — people of color earned more than Whites and Asians.
So, what exactly is the writer saying?

It's based on a survey. 6-8 years after graduation, white MBA grads report $94k higher annual earnings than Asian grads.

That's not what the chart in the article shows

it's newsworthy when men make more than women, or when whites make more than non-whites; however, it's only a passing statement (in the vein of a full diclosure type byline) in which the opposite is true.
This article also fails to mention if the study controlled for types of law practiced by these people -- something that still persists in our "pay gap myth." A lot of the PoC and women that I know in law started out doing basically volunteer work, contract review, innocence project, public defender and environmental defense work, etc. While a lot of the white men went into patent law, divorce law, corporate law, etc. Basically higher-paying professions.

That to me shows an income disparity of approximately 20,000 between white (and asian) men and black (and hispanic and native american) men 6 - 8 years after getting an MBA.

Oh you're right. That chart aggregates values from all the schools. But only Harvard Business School (mentioned in the headline) had a gap of $97,800.
