CHICAGO The Shedd Aquarium is being sued on accusations of sexual discrimination by a woman who worked on the institution s research vessel in Miami.
Susan Catherine Edgerton said in the federal lawsuit she was on the receiving end of sexist remarks, punishments and double standards while working as a hospitality coordinator on the Coral Reef II, a laboratory at sea for Shedd field researchers.
Edgerton was hired as the first female crew member aboard the Coral Reef II in 2018. She oversaw meals, housing and hotel operations on the boat while scientists conducted open-water studies on the vessel.
