refused to protect her against
a violent student, "conducting

her that was itself an act of
racial harassment, and
ultimately terminating her
employment."

District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Cathy Seibel, a motion

could not stay at a place that
treated his wife that way -

her rocker." My old school,
indeed.
