A former employee of the University of Phoenix filed a discrimination lawsuit along with the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The suit alleged that the university told her she would not be considered for a promotion because of an earlier pregnancy discrimination claim she made.
The University of Phoenix has settled the case out of court and will pay $32,500. In the settlement, however, the University of Phoenix admitted to no wrongdoing or liability.
