Pambianchi v. Arkansas Tech University 95 F.Supp.3d 1101 (2015)
- The case summary omits the discussion of whether Ms. Pambianchi was discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation because in March 2015, sexual orientation was not projected by Title VII. Note that sexual orientation was deemed protected by Title VII in July 2015. Do you think Ms. Pambianchi would have had a stronger case if she had argued after the law was changed? Why or Why not?
2. This case was filed using Title VII, but presents many other legal issues. What specifically about the facts of this case do you think might be the basis for legal challenges? Explain your reasoning.
