Ms. Wise was fired from her job at the Mead Corporation after she was involved in a fight with a coworker. On four other unrelated occasions, fights occurred between male coworkers. Only one of the males was fired, but this was after his second fight, in which he seriously injured another employee. There is no dispute that Ms. Wise was qualified and performed her duties adequately. Ms. Wise successfully establishes a prima facie case of discrimination; however, defendant Mead Corporation meets its burden to ‘‘articulate legitimate and nondiscriminatory reasons’’ for firing Ms. Wise. Can she prevail? Explain.
