Legal Team

Introduction

The Legal Research team formed in an effort to give students a chance to perform research and gain applied experience in the field of employment discrimination law and practices.  The team is currently doing research on the misconceptions of Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Law in the workplace.  Future projects and areas of interest include delivering training to organizations on topics including EEO Law, sexual harassment, and issues concerning diversity in the workplace; performing research on international employment law; and conducting adverse impact analyses.  Dr. Art Gutman has extensive experience in working with EEO Law as a professor, researcher, consultant and expert witness.  He is the author of EEO Law and Personnel Practices (2nd ed.) and also writes On the Legal Front, a column concerning legal issues in TIP (The Industrial/Organizational Psychologist), a publication of the Society for Industrial/Organizational Psychology.
