Measure Outlawing Forced Retirement at Age 70 to Include Professors in 1994.
Palmer, Stacy E.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v33 n9 p1,17 Oct 29 1986
Federal legislation effective in 1994 bars colleges and universities from forcing tenured faculty to retire at age 70. Reactions of unions and professional associations, a required study of the law's impact, and a related measure requiring institutions to continue contributions to pension plans of over-65 workers are discussed.
