2 Graduate Students Sue UCLA Over Professor’s Alleged Sexual Harassment [on Gabriel Piterberg]

UCLA officials dissuaded the two women from filing formal complaints against the professor, Gabriel Piterberg, and urged them to keep quiet about the alleged abuse, according to the lawsuit, filed last month in federal district court against the University of California’s Board of Regents.
