The Equal Employment Opportunities Commission petition filed this summer on behalf of Professors Christiane Joost-Gougier and Barbara E. White followed an EEOC investigation of the Medford, Mass. school last winter. The civil rights class action suit alleges discriminatory behavior on the part of the former Fine Arts department chairman, and asks the court to enjoin Tufts from dismissing Joost-Gagier and White until "an administrative determination of reasonable cause and attempted conciliation of reasonable cause is found" can be effected. Both women were scheduled to have their employment terminated by Tufts on Aug. 31. White denied tenure last year while Joost-Gagier was not rehired following the 1972-73 school year. White taught for seven years at Tufts, while Joost-Gagier had been there for four years.

According to the EEOC investigation, White "was denied tenure by a committee directly influenced by her department chairman who solicited adverse recommendations" and because "though she had three pregnancies and two babies, (she) was not given any extension of her probationary period before the tenure decision was made." According to the suit, the activities Tufts allegedly engaged in are: The ' maintenance of discriminatory tenure and promotional practices, policies, or systems.

Discriminatory hiring The maintenance of a policy and practice of discriminatory hiring and recruiting. The maintenance of discriminatory wage and salary policies practices, and systems.

A hearing for a preliminary in-juncton will be held sometime afer Sept. 24, as a result of a request for postponement by .the university counsel "to enable all relevant parties to be present for the hearing." Court directive Under court directive, Tufts is paying the women an amount equal to their base salary to offset the harm caused by the difference between the trial date and the date the university terminated their employment. According to an EEOC spokeswoman in Washington, this is the only case involving a university ever filed by the federal government's antidiscrimination organization. She said 67 of 181 suits currently being brought by the EEOC were on . the basis of sex discrimination, but no other involved an institution of higher learning. Last winter's EEOC investigation of Tufts was conducted after Joost-Gaugier and White separately approached the Boston district office alleging sex discrimination as the basis for the termination of their employment.The suit against Tufts is based upon provisions in Title IX of the Education Amendment of 1972, and Executive Orders which prohibit sex discriminaton in the employment practices of educational institutions receiving federal contracts.
