Students are graduating in the US this week, and the most common advice is 'follow your passions'. According to a Washington University study lead by professor Sapna Cheryan though, this seemingly innocent and uplifting message might be counterproductive, and relegate women to gender conforming jobs - that are not necessarily the best paid ones.
