Daily News | Penn State Abington professor sues the university, claiming he was discriminated against for being white
“Students instead of being presented with several different view points on any given subject, we’re seeing more and more that they are given one particular view point on a topic and there are negative consequences for questioning it, disagreeing with it or asking questions about it,” said Leigh Ann O’Neill, managing director of legal advocacy. “That’s what professor De Piero experienced.”
De Piero, who earned his master’s in education from Temple University and doctorate from the University of California, Santa Barbara, declined to say if he wanted his job back. He is now employed as an assistant professor of English at Northampton Community College in the Lehigh Valley, a job he started last August. He is seeking damages of an unspecified amount.Temple kept its commitment to open a center on antiracism. Penn State didn’t.
“Racist structures are quite real in assessment and elsewhere regardless of the good intentions that teachers and scholars bring to the set-up of those structures,” his supervisor wrote to him and two other white faculty members on March 29, 2019, the lawsuit said. “For me, the racism is in the results if the results draw a color line.”
Another training session for writing faculty in August 2020 was called “White Teachers Are a Problem.”
