Georgia Military College violated federal law by
committing race discrimination at its Milledgeville, Ga., location, U.S.
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit. In its lawsuit, Civil Action No., 5:11-cv-00023, filed in U.S.
District Court for the Middle District of Georgia, Macon division, the
EEOC alleges that Georgia Military College Foundation, Inc., doing
business as Georgia Military College, subjected Solomon Mosley, an
African-American groundskeeper, to a racially hostile work environment
over a four-year period.
Race discrimination violates Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
The EEOC filed suit after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation
settlement through its conciliation process. The federal agency seeks compensatory and punitive damages for the
harmed employee, as well as injunctive relief designed to prevent such
discrimination in the future.
