Two Women Sue Columbia University for Sexual Harassment

According to a report in the New York Daily News, two former graduate students at Columbia University in New York City have filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the university. The two women claim that they were subjected to unwanted sexual advances from professors. One of the women claims that she was threatened with a poor grade if she refused the professor’s advances. When the woman refused, she alleges that she was accused of cheating. The women claim that they reported the abuse to the university of administration but nothing was done to address their concerns.
