UCSF professor faces second sexual harassment lawsuit
Source: San Francisco Examiner
A second woman filed a lawsuit Monday against UC San Francisco professor and prominent tobacco control activist Dr. Stanton Glantz, who last year was accused of sexual harassment by a former female researcher at the school.
Former research associate Juliette Jackson is seeking unspecified damages for claims that Glantz, who heads UCSF’s Center for Tobacco Research and Education, created a “sexually-charged” and hostile work environment in which he allegedly “repeatedly leered at Jackson’s and other females breasts,” according to the complaint.
The lawsuit, filed in Alameda County Superior Court, comes on the heels of a sexual harassment lawsuit filed in December by Eunice Neeley, a former doctoral researcher whom Glantz mentored for some two years.
Neeley accused Glantz of staring at her body inappropriately and making sexual remarks in the workplace. She also sued the UCSF Board of Regents, alleging that the university’s inaction on a complaint she filed about the harassment resulted in Glantz retaliating against her.

Not at all surprised by this.
I worked for this place during the AIDS crisis.
My wardrobe was more important than what skills I had it seemed. I saw lots of this going on during the 8 years I worked for them.
So much for the pristine image UCSF tries to project.
