Yale settles sexual harassment suit

By Erin Buzuvis, Sudha Setty, and Kristine Newhall

ADVERTISEMENTS
Somehow we missed this story about an alleged incident of sexual harassment at the Yale School of Drama. A female student was dismissed from the school in 2005 and subsequently filed a lawsuit citing retaliation after she reported sexual harassment in the context of an acting workshop in which the instructor asked students to simulate masturbation as part of a class exercise.
Yale settled for $10,000, the cost of the student's legal fees, and admitted no wrongdoing.
More details on the incident and the lawsuit can be found here.
