Mohammad Karamouz, 61, an award-winning environmental engineering expert who specializes in water resources.
But was their discrimination unlawful? Does he demand to be loved by his colleagues? Meanwhile in Iran, the population chants "Death to America. Death to Jews. Death to Israel." Americans are supposed to be better than terrorist nations. Ahem!
[From article]
Karamouz, who was born in Iran but became a US citizen in 2001, is suing for unspecified damages.
The professor brought his complaint to the state Division of Human Rights but the agency dismissed his case, finding Karamouz violated Labor Department laws regarding meal breaks and pay, and had created a “hostile work environment” for his staff.
“Professor Karamouz’s contract was not renewed because of his own conduct as an employee. Just as with his previous baseless claims, NYU is confident that we will prevail in this meritless case,” spokesman Matt Nagel said.
Karamouz lost his state complaint because he went in without a lawyer and “failed to put forward many of his most persuasive facts,” attorney Vincent White said.
