Tavana is a naturalized U.S. citizen who lives in Voorhees, N.J.. He joined the faculty at La Salle in 1984 and served two terms as chair of the management department. He sued after he failed to keep the post for a third term and was passed over for the job of business school dean.
Tavana is on sabbatical. Neither he nor his lawyer have returned messages for comment.
La Salle says it regrets that Tavana feels he was mistreated and hopes he resumes teaching there.
