A controversial City College 1
nrofiessor who studies race differ
I
ences and has said blacks are "significantly
less intelligent than
whites" has won a legal battle
against his school.
U.S. District Court Judge Ken- 1
neth Conboy ruled recently City
College, part of the City University
of New York system, violated
Michael Levin's constitutional
rights. The case pointed out the
dangers of the "political correctness"
movement
Levin sued college officials last
year, saying his due process and
free speech rights were violated
when City College formed a panel
to review his research. He claimed
the examination limited him professionally
and threatened his
tenure.
In his ruling, Conboy wrote,
"This case raises serious constitutional
quesitions that go to the
heart of the current national debate
on what has come to be denominated
as 'political correctness' in
speech and thought on the campuses
of the nation's colleges and
universities."

Levin's responded, "I'd like to
concentrate on the whole issue of
race differences. My court case
shows that the roof won't come
crumbling down on (others who do
similar research)."
The judge's ruling said City
College cannot conduct any further
inquiries into Levin's writings or
views and it cannot establish separate
class sections solely because
of Levin's opinions.
Levin, a philosophy professor, is
on a one-year sabbatical and said
he plans to finish writing a book
about the implications of racial
differences.
In the meantime, City College
and City University officials are
investigating a case similar to Levin's
involving remarks made by
Leonard Jeffries, chairman of the
school's black studies department.
"Obviously, this (case) is going
to help him," Levin said.
Jeffries told hundreds of people
at a black arts festival this summer
that Jews in Hollywood worked
with the Mafia to hold down
blacks in society. The remarks
prompted an outpouring of concern
from political leaders.
