Harris-Stowe State College devised a reduction-in-force plan that selected both tenured and nontenured faculty members for termination. Leftwich, a 47-year-old tenured biology professor, sued the college for age discrimination under the ADEA. The college articulated its rationale for the termination plan based on tenure, stating that younger, nontenured faculty would have new ideas and that since tenured faculty were generally paid more than untenured faculty, a greater cost savings per person would be achieved by eliminating some tenured positions. The college states that its RIF plan never referred to age and thus it clearly did not violate the ADEA. Leftwich disagrees. Decide. [Leftwich v. Harris-Stowe State College, 702 F.2d 686 (8th Cir.)]
