San Fernando Valley : Judge Denies UC Post in Bias Settlement
- Share via
Chicano Studies professor Rodolfo Acuna, who successfully sued the University of California for age bias, may collect more than $300,000 in damages but is not entitled to teach at its Santa Barbara campus, U.S. District Judge Audrey B. Collins has ruled.
In denying Acuna’s request for a tenured post at UC Santa Barbara, the judge found that the animosity between him and his potential colleagues was so great after 3 1/2 years of litigation that it would make his appointment “both impractical and inappropriate.”
