The University of Colorado at Boulder has settled a discrimination and retaliation lawsuit that one of its law professors filed against it. In June, Paul Campos sued the university and Lolita Buckner Inniss, the law school’s dean, in federal court. Campos alleged he was paid less than his white colleagues because he’s Latino, that he received a low rating from his department in 2021 for taking paternity leave and that the university retaliated against him for complaining.
CU Boulder law professor Paul Campos netted a low six-figure settlement. The university agreed to pay all his legal fees and permanently remove Law School Dean Lolita Buckner Inniss as his supervisor. Both parties signed a dismissal of all claims on Tuesday.
