Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario application against UWindsor withdrawn

Allegations of discrimination against the University of Windsor and professor Richard Moon made by Emily Carasco in an application to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario have been withdrawn by Dr. Carasco. She had alleged race and gender discrimination following her unsuccessful candidacy during the University's 2010 search for a dean for the Faculty of Law. The application to the HRTO is being dismissed and the hearing is terminated.

Holly Ward, spokesperson for the University of Windsor said, “The University has and will continue to strive for the highest standards of human rights and equity. With respect to the specific application that was before HRTO, we will be making no further statements.”
