That's true, and unfortunately it would be true even if he had won a huge judgment against them and they were officially on record as illegally discriminating against him.

The simple fact that he was fired and involved in a lawsuit would scare off most employers.

I wonder why he didn't want to go all the way, especially when the incident happened in front of a room full of people who gave affidavits same the girl was lying.

I think 1 to 2 years salary would be the minimum award he would have gotten, as they've damaged his earning potential for the rest of his life.

Bret Winestine was pretty frank about his settlement with Evergreen State College. He was absolutely in the right and had the receipts. It would have taken five years and a huge bankroll to prove it in court.

He and his wife (a fellow professor) took the settlement because it was a good start on switching to another career. It should have been two or three times as much, but they were not going to get it soon enough to be relevant.

For the record, I think Bret is a douche. He immediately moved to Portland and then launched a Youtube career by making a bunch of stupid comments about the election. If you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas.

Perhaps the settlement included tenure or something?
