University of Colorado
Rocky Mountain, CO: (Apr-20-07) Dr. Robert Schrier, former chairman of the University of Colorado Department of Medicine, sued the university after he was removed from his post without any explanation. The suit alleged that Schrier was wrongfully terminated and retaliated against as he vocally criticized the school's $500 million move to the Fitzsimons campus in Aurora, which he believed would leave the university with enormous debt. The suit also proposed that Schrier be reinstated to his former position as the termination damaged his reputation and came primarily because he was an outspoken defender of his faculty and an opponent of the Fitzsimons move. The four year long litigation ended two weeks before the lawsuit was set for trial, when the University of Colorado agreed to pay Schrier $1 million for legal fees, research funds, and salary concessions.
