Here. The IHE article on this is misleading (typical of IHE!): the federal judge dismissed only the discrimination claims (which seemed to me preposterous), and since that was the only federal law claim at issue, the federal court declined to take up the state law breach of contract claims. But state law breach of contract is Wax's strongest legal claim: part of her employment contract with Penn includes protection for her lawful extramural speech, and Penn has quite clearly punished her for her extramural speech (as the committee report recommending sanctions makes very clear!) So I expect Wax to bring suit in state court, and she ought to prevail there. (The federal court opinion, as an aside, wrongly says Wax made offensive remarks in class, but no credible evidence was ever adduced of that.)
