Two former female lawyers at Louisiana State University’s Health Sciences Center in New Orleans have sued the school and three administrators, including the general counsel, over gender discrimination and retaliation claims.

The plaintiffs include Katherine Muslow, who worked as university in-house counsel for 16 years and served as the Health Science Center’s general counsel until last year; and Meredith Cunningham, who worked as a part-time in-house counsel under Muslow.
