Revised and updated, the new edition of Tenure, Discrimination, and
the Courts provides a lucid overview of the case law involving
charges of discrimination made by faculty members against
institutions of higher learning. More and more faculty members are
taking their cases to court, charging illegal employment
discrimination in reappointment, tenure, and promotion decisions.
How can individual faculty members defend themselves against unfair
practices, and how can universities and colleges protect themselves
from being named in employment discrimination lawsuits? What
factors precipitate lawsuits? What position have the courts taken
on intervention? What evidence do the courts consider persuasive in
such cases? Paying particular attention to equal employment
opportunity legislation, Terry L. Leap discusses the results of
more than twenty years of promotion and tenure litigation and
provides a comprehensive chart of relevant cases. He also analyzes
the rationale used by the courts in adjudicating these cases and
suggests ways colleges and universities can reduce the likelihood
of suits.
