The deans were put on leave earlier in the summer after sending messages that disparaged Jewish panelists. A fourth dean, who is tenured, will remain at the university.
After eight years of litigation, a federal judge has ordered West Los Angeles College to provide on-campus transportation for two students by the start of the fall semester. The ruling may have broader implications. The fear of falling has followed Charles Guerra onto the hilly campus of West Los Angeles College in Culver City since 2016. That’s the year Guerra, an Army veteran with a spinal cord injury that makes walking difficult and painful, and two other students filed a lawsuit against the college after it discontinued its point-to-point shuttle services for students with disabilities. Since then, Guerra has fallen numerous times attempting to traverse the campus’s steep, uneven terrain and the long distances between its buildings and decentralized parking lots.
