Federal judge lets professor's disability discrimination claim proceed against CU

A federal judge denied the University of Colorado's request to dismiss a medical professor's disability discrimination lawsuit, which alleged that the school suspended her because it perceived she was cognitively impaired.  Robin Slover, a professor of clinical practice in anesthesiology at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus who has worked for the university on-and-off since 1975, leveled a variety of accusations against her employer. She asserted that she experienced discrimination based on her age and religion, and she was subjected to a hostile work environment.
