C ontact: Ja n ice Fennell, In a D illard Rus- M innesota u p d ate A federal appeals court rejected a fem ale fa c ­ ulty m e m b e r’s claim that she was denied tenure at the University of Minnesota Libraries b e ­ cause of sex discrimination. In its unanimous ruling, filed on Ju ly 8, the three-judge panel of the Eighth U .S. C ircuit Court of Appeals found “that the University adminsitration’s conclu­ sion that (the plain tiff’s) publications did not constitute 'distinction in research and wTiting’ was a reasonable position under the circ u m ­ stances, and justified no inference of sexual dis­ crim in a tio n .” T h e court further noted: “Th ere was no issue of c r e d ib ility in this heav ily- documented record, nor was there any indica­ tion of a sexually hostile environm en t.” Lind a D eB eau-M elting won the first round in the case when district court special master Viola K anatz ruled that the University should grant her tenure. K an atz’s decision was over­ turned by magistrate Patrick McNulty. T h e ap­ pellate court agreed with McNulty that “the critical findings of the master were clearly erro­ neous.” D eB eau-M elting was hired as a tenure-track instructor in 1974 and was denied tenure in 1979 and 1980. In 1981 and 1982 she filed sex discrimination claims under the Rajender con­ sent decree, which provides a legal process for University of Minnesota women faculty to file sex discrimination complaints. T h e decree was adopted as part of the settlement in a 1973 class action suit by Shyam ala R ajender, who argued that she had been denied tenure in the Chem is­ try D ep artm en t because of her sex. ­ ­ ­ ­ ­ ­ ­ sell L ib ra ry , Georgia College, Milledgeville, GA 31 0 6 1 ; (912) 45 3 -4 0 4 7 .
