Tenure at Harvard Med: No Immunity from Ill Treatment.

Stokes, Jerome W. D.; Reese, Christopher J.

Journal of Law and Education, v18 n4 p583-92 Fall 1989

Charges of plagiarism led to the resignation of Dr. Shervert Frazier from Harvard Medical School. Examines broader implications surrounding the dismissal of tenured faculty for "cause." Summarizes decision in "McConnell v. Howard University" as indicative that dismissal for cause is a genuine issue of fact subject to judicial review. (MLF)
