AD HOC COMM. v. BERNARD M. BARUCH COLLEGE

No. 84 Civ. 7236 (RO).

726 F.Supp. 522 (1989)

AD HOC COMM. OF THE BARUCH BLACK AND HISPANIC ALUMNI ASS'N; Joseph Sellman on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, Plaintiffs, v. BERNARD M. BARUCH COLLEGE; Joel Segall in his official capacity, Defendants.

December 15, 1989.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case
