Faragher V. City Of Boca Raton: A Personal Account Of A Sexual Discrimination Plaintiff, Beth Ann Faragher Jan 2005

Faragher V. City Of Boca Raton: A Personal Account Of A Sexual Discrimination Plaintiff, Beth Ann Faragher

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Former Supreme Court plaintiff Beth Ann Faragher ruminates on the circumstances that led to the Supreme Court's landmark decision in Faragher v. City of Boca Raton. For Ms. Faragher, the case was about much more than the monetary issue involved, specifically whether she should have been awarded $1.00 under Title VII. The case became, in her words, "a national issue of human dignity and civil rights."

How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying (Cases): Gender Stereotypes And Sexual Harassment Since The Passage Of Title Vii, Miriam A. Cherry

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

This Article, which is part of a symposium on the 40th Anniversary of Title VII appearing in the Hofstra Labor and Employment Law Journal, evaluates the progress of women in the workforce by critically analyzing the musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." Written in the early 1960s and made into a 1967 movie, How to Succeed follows the adventures of J. Pierrepont Finch, a window washer who, with the aid of a sarcastic self-help book, schemes his way up the corporate ladder. It also includes the sexual exploits of the exclusively male executive corps among the female …

Making Title Vii Law And Policy: The Supreme Court's Sexual Harassment Jursiprudence, Ronald Turner

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Professor Turner's article focuses on judicial lawmaking and policy-making in an important area of antidiscrimination law - the statutory prohibition of workplace sexual harassment found in Title VII. The article highlights the ways in which the Supreme Court's interpretation and application of Title VII's ban on sex discrimination are contrary to, and fly in the face of the judges-should-make-no-law axiom.

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 Jan 2004

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 …
