"Don't Ask, Don't Tell": A Qualified Defense, Eugene R. Milhizer
Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal
Upon the 10th Anniversary of the so-called “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, I was asked to reflect upon the policy by Hofstra University. This article presents my remarks at a symposium dedicagted to this topic. The article first reviews in detail the origins of the policy. It then explores the moral debate implicated by the policy, including the traditional arguments against homosexuality with special attention to the natural law, and latitudinarian arguments in favor of homosexuality or opposed to discrimination based on the basis of homosexuality. The article next surveys contemporary attitudes about homosexuality, focusing on military service by homosexuals. …

Liberty, Diversity, Academic Freedom, And Survival: Preferential Hiring Among Religiously-Affliated Institutions Of Higher Education, Jamie Darin Prenkert
Liberty, Diversity, Academic Freedom, And Survival: Preferential Hiring Among Religiously-Affliated Institutions Of Higher Education, Jamie Darin Prenkert
Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal
This article discusses the exemptions given to religious educational institutions from the usual Title VII protections afforded employees. The author supports the use of such exemptions when they promote diversity and protecting the fundamental foundation of the institution itself, but warns that there is a point where the exemptions must not be used even when they are within the power of the institution to invoke. Such inappropriate instances include promoting faculty or granting tenure to faculty members who are not of the religious persuasion of the institution, or hiring the best and brightest faculty over the professor who simply agrees …

The authors argue that achieving diversity should be one of the main legitimate justifications for affirmative action programs, in addition to the traditionally cited "remedy for past discrimination" justification. The authors describe the legal framework for affirmative action beginning with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. They discuss the various types of affirmative action plans - public and private, court ordered and voluntary. The article concludes with a discussion of Department of Justice and EEOC policies towards affirmative action, arguing that the federal government should be the biggest proponent of such programs.
Same-Sex Harassment: Do Either Price Waterhouse Or Oncale Support The Ninth Circuit's Holding In Nichols V. Azteca Restaurant Enterprises, Inc. That Same-Sex Harassment Based On Failure To Conform To Gender Stereotyopes Is Actionable?, Philip Mcgough
Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal
In Nichols v. Azteca Restaurant Enterprises, the Ninth Circuit, overruling a twenty-two year old case, held that same-sex harassment based on gender stereotypes is actionable under Title VII. The court based this holding on the Supreme Court's 1989 opinion in Price Waterhouse v. Hopkins. However reasonable a reading of Title VII, the author argues that Nichols takes a major step beyond Hopkins, and resolves an issue not considered, even by implication, in the case. Further, same-sex harassment based on gender stereotypes is an issue sidestepped by the Supreme Court in Oncale - its only opinion to date dealing with same-sex …
