Judge rules against UCLA prof suspended after refusing lenient grading for Black students
2025-12-22
[The College Fix]・A judge ruled against UCLA lecturer Gordon Klein, who was suspended after refusing to grade black students leniently in the wake of George Floyd's death, siding with UCLA on every issue

・Klein sought $13 million in damages, alleging his suspension harmed his expert witness consulting practice, but the judge ruled Klein's own actions contributed to the harm and UCLA acted reasonably

・The judge's ruling allows UCLA to maintain its administrative decisions during a public controversy, finding no violation of Klein's academic freedom, and Klein's legal team has appealed the decision based on what they claim are significant oversights in the ruling

A judge has issued a tentative decision against a professor who sued UCLA after he was suspended in the wake of the George Floyd-Black Lives Matter riots after refusing a request to grade black students leniently.

Superior Court Judge H. Jay Ford’s recent ruling against UCLA accounting lecturer Gordon Klein sides with UCLA on all three causes of action: breach of contract, false light, and negligent interference with prospective earnings.
