University Settles Suit With Congressman’s Wife
NEW ORLEANS
The Southern University System has settled a lawsuit filed by the wife of a Louisiana congressman that will give her a settlement plus a new job.
Dr. Andrea Green Jefferson, the wife of U.S. Rep. William Jefferson, D-La., filed suit more than a year ago after she was removed as vice chancellor for academic affairs at Southern University at New Orleans or SUNO (see Black Issues, Jan. 3, 2002).
