Lawsuit Claims Discrimination For Being "Too French"

(Cincinnati, Ohio) A former instructor at the University of Cincinnati, Nathalie Doucet, 46, has filed suit in U.S. District Court alleging discrimination after she lost her job at the school for being "too French." She seeks her job back or monetary damages. A university spokesman has denied Doucet's claims, stating she lost her job because she was not a satisfactory teacher and wasn't improving her skills.

Specifically, the lawsuit complains that:

Doucet was labeled anti-American by a student's parent and told by an administrator that she was "too French."

Doucet also was humiliated by an administrator who rejected her approach to a research project by saying that it was "not the way Americans do it," the lawsuit alleges.

Now a permanent resident alien living in San Francisco, Doucet was born in France, apparently in whine country.
