University Dean

Miami, FL: (Jan-15-08) Johnny McGaha, 64, former chairman and dean of professional studies at Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU), brought charges against the college, alleging that he was demoted because of age and gender discriminatory practices that were rife at the university. McGaha was allegedly reassigned in 2005 to a criminal justice professorship at Florida Gulf Coast University. His salary also dropped from $115,325 to $86,156. Around 2005, McGaha began legal action by notifying the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission about perceived discrimination at FGCU. His suit stated that the reassignment stemmed from that complaint. Sources close to the case stated that the two sides agreed to a settlement agreement, resolving the dispute, though terms of the deal were kept confidential. [NEWS PRESS: DEAN DISCRIMINATION]
