OPEN TO ALL
opportunity statutes by allowing
interviews of students with law
firms which-it was alleged by a
group of women students-resisted
hiring women.
The current decision agreed
with the university that the law
school does notify all employers
Of the law regarding
non-discriminatory policy and
warns them that the services of
the school will be denied them if
they do not comply. It further
said there is no evidence the law
school did not refer students to
prospective employers without
regard to sex.
The women who filed the
initial complaint are reportedly
considering further action.
Sexism
(CPS) Three women college
teachers have filed a class action
suit against every four-year college
in the state of Virginia charging
the state higher education system
with an "active conspiracy" to
discriminate against women
faculty members.
The suit filed in US District
Court Richmond named as
defendants Governor LInwood
Holton, the State Council of
Higher Education, the presidents
or chancellors of all colleges and
universities within the state
system, and the Rectors of the
Boards of Visitors (Trustees) at
these schools.
The Virginia Higher Education
System, the Governor and other
state officials are charged by the
suit with "having conspired to
enact and effect and have enacted
and effected policies of willful
and systematic exclusion of and
discrimination against women as a
class."
The alleged policies include:
-hiring at lower pay and ranks
-unequal salary increases
-failure to promote women to
higher ranks
--failure to grant tenure or
rehire women with the same
frequency as men
-•substantial exclusion of
women from administrative
positions
--failure to equalize working
conditions
-excluding faculty wives from
faculty positions
-using different standards in
recruiting female faculty.
Teachers Sarita Schotta, B.
Patricia Dyson, and Ruth
Taliaferro are seeking a permanent
Injunction against the defendants'
discrimination against women in
respect to hiring, salaries,
promotion, supervision,
retirement and firing of faculty
and administrators. The plaintiffs
also seek the back wages they
"and others similarly situated"
were denied as a result of sex and
age discrimination, and $300,000
each In damages.
The suit alleges statewide
discriminatory policies that serve
"to strengthen and promote the
existence of sex discrimination at
each university and college" and
that the policies are "arbitrary
and capricious and without any
rational basis or legitimate
purpose."
Schotta, an assistant professor
of foreign languages at Virginia
Polytechnic Institute (VPI) and
the State U niversity at
Blacksburg, and Dyson, an
instructor holding a law degree,
have already won HEW rulings
against VPI which found "willful
sex discrimination."
Assistant professor Taliaferro
alleges that Longwood College in
Farmville forced her to retire at
age 65, though men consistently
teach to age 70 and older. She
also claims the school took 13
years to promote her "because the
men in her department would not
like it."
According to the suit, she was
paid less than men of the same
rank and no retroactive salary
adjustment was made for the
school's failure to recognize her
law degree as equivalent to a
doctorate.
The suit was filed with the
support of the National Education
Association DuShane Emergency
Fund.
The Virginia Attorney
General's office filed a motion to
dismiss the suit on Jan. 7 and the
attorneys for the plaintiffs
responded with a lengthy,
memorandum, according to John
Grad, plaintiff's counsel. Grad
expects the case to be heard
within the next month.

EAST INDEPENDENCE BOULEVARD
Near the Coliseum between Midas Muffler and the House of Unfinished Furniture
(CPS)"Two reporters for a
Dallas underground newspaper,
who had been convicted of
illegally photographing an
undercover narcotics officer have
had their convictions reversed.
The Texas court of criminal
appeals, in a three to two vote,
has ruled that Iconoclast
reporters, Stone Burns and J.D.
Arnold, cannot be held in
contempt of court merely for
photographing a "narc".
The incident occurred in April
of 1972 when Burns and Arnold
took a picture of officer Robert
Hardin shortly before Hardin was
scheduled to testify in a Dallas
drug trial. Burns and Arnold were
charged with contempt of court
after the Iconoclast published the
picture of Hardin.
Judge Edward Gossett
sentenced each of the reporters to
six months in jail for allegedly
threatening Hardin's life and well
being by allowing the photograph
to be published.
The Texas court of appeals,
however, reversed the conviction.
The majority ruled that the mere
publication of a photograph
cannot be construed as a threat
against a policeman's
I i f e - - particu lar ly after the
policeman has publicly revealed
his identity by appearing in open
court as a witness for the state.
The Iconoclast said its 21
month defense of Burns and
Arnold cost S20(X3.
