University of Tennessee Sued For Gender Discrimination

Three very high ranking employees in the University of Tennessee’s athletic department have filed a sex discrimination lawsuit alleging they were discriminated against based upon their gender. Basically, the lawsuit depicts the athletic department as a “good old boys club”.

Recently, attorney Jim Higgins was interviewed on the case. You can watch the interview below:
