MIT Censures Professors' Conduct
By Allan Coukell

Listen to story (Real Audio)

BOSTON, Mass. - November 03, 2006 - A new report finds that a Nobel Prize winning scientist at MIT acted inappropriately when he discouraged a young scientist from taking a job at the school.

Meanwhile, some faculty members are angry that the same report, released yesterday, also blames a second professor for the way the process played out. WBUR's Allan Coukell has more on the story.
