Indian-origin professor sues US college for racial discrimination

Indian-origin professor sues US college for gender & racial disparity: reports

Lakshmi Balachandra, associate professor of entrepreneurship at Babson College alleged she lost career opportunities because of mistreatment and administrators’ failure to investigate her concerns

Lakshmi Balachandra, associate professor of entrepreneurship at Babson College alleged she lost career opportunities because of mistreatment and administrators&rsquo; failure to investigate her concerns

An Indian-origin associate professor at the Wellesley business school, Massachusetts has filed a lawsuit alleging that she was subjected to racial and gender discrimination, according to a media report.
Lakshmi Balachandra, associate professor of entrepreneurship at Babson College alleged she lost career opportunities and faced economic losses, emotional distress, and harm to her reputation because of mistreatment and administrators&rsquo; failure to investigate her concerns, The Boston Globe newspaper reported on February 27.
Balachandra joined Babson&rsquo;s faculty in 2012 and earned tenure in 2019.
In her lawsuit, she called out Andrew Corbett, a professor and former chair of the college&rsquo;s entrepreneurship division, as the "primary direct perpetrators of the discriminatory work environment." According to the complaint filed in US District Court in Boston dated February 27, Balachandra alleged that Corbett, who oversaw teaching assignments, class scheduling, and annual reviews, only allowed her to teach required courses in entrepreneurship despite her requests to teach electives - even though she had taught such classes previously at MIT Sloan School of Management and Harvard Business School.
"Babson favours white and male faculty and predominantly reserves awards and privileges for them,&rdquo; Balachandra's complaint alleged.
According to the complaint, despite her research record, expressed interest, and service to the college, she was denied numerous leadership positions and opportunities for more time to conduct research and write.
&ldquo;Such privileges are routinely given to white male faculty in the entrepreneurship division,&rdquo; the complaint read.
Balachandra&rsquo;s attorney, Monica Shah, said that the professor has also filed a charge of discrimination with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination.
Meanwhile, Babson College has responded that it takes concerns or complaints seriously and has well-established protocols and resources in place to thoroughly investigate and address them.
&ldquo;The college is home to a diverse global community where equity and inclusion are valued and incorporated across every facet of campus, and where discrimination of any kind is not tolerated,&rdquo; a spokesperson of Babson College was quoted as saying.
Balachandra, who is currently on leave for a fellowship at the National Science Foundation, is seeking unspecified damages, the report added.&nbsp;

A unique course being offered by an American college is going viral on social media. The course includes students watching pornographic films together to "discuss the sexualisation of race, class and gender and as an experimental, radical art form". It is being offered by a private liberal arts college in Utah. The mention of the course has been removed from the website, but it is still being offered by the institute, according to reports. The description of the course said, "Hardcore pornography is as American as apple pie and more popular than Sunday night football." The description says that the approach to the billion-dollar industry is two fold -- one as a cultural phenomenon, which reflects and reinforces sexual inequalities but also holds the potential to challenge gender norms, and two, as an art form that requires serious contemplation.
Students would receive 2 credits for taking the course. ===============================

University Grants Commission chairman on Monday said the central universities will have to use Common University Entrance Test (CUET) scores to admit students to undergraduate programmes this year.
CUET, in all likelihood, will be conducted in the first week of July, the UGC said. 
This means that apart from the eligibility criterion of different universities, Class 12 board examination marks will not have any bearing on the admission of the students.
"From the 2022-23 academic year, the National Testing Agency will be conducting the CUET for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. All the central universities will have to consider CUET scores for admissions to their programmes," Kumar said at a press briefing.
There are 45 central universities funded by the University Grants Commission (UGC).
The syllabus of the CUET will be mirrored with the Class 12 model syllabus of the NCERT, Kumar said.
