Maria was treated as a second-class citizen. Nepotism policies forbade the hiring of both husband and wife in universities. Therefore, although technically employed by the university, she was neither given an office, nor a title, nor a salary. https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/archives/exhibits/maria-goeppert-mayer-exhibit/#:~:text=There%2C%20Maria%20was%20treated%20as,a%20title%2C%20nor%20a%20salary.
