Inside Higher Ed: Panel Finds Age Discrimination at Ohio U
Ohio University engaged in age discrimination when it denied tenure to a then 51-year-old engineer in 2001, the Ohio Civil Rights Commission said in a stinging ruling this month, rejecting the recommendation of an administrative law judge. The commission ordered the university to offer a tenured associate professor position to Robert Lipset and to give him $266,000 in back pay. Ohio University officials said they would appeal the agency’s decision.
