Sarasota, Fla. (June 21, 2022) – Eight alumni from Ringling College of Art and Design, Inc. (“Ringling College”) have filed suit against the college alleging multiple causes of action including constructive fraud, negligent supervision and retention, breach of implied contract, and breach of fiduciary duty.
The plaintiffs allege that Ringling College breached its duty to provide a safe campus environment by failing to protect its student population from the mishandling of student-on-student reports of sexual assault, sexual harassment, threats of violence, and stalking. The Plaintiffs also allege that the college breached its duty to protect students and student employees from discrimination saying they were discriminated against by the now former Associate Dean of Students in Resident Life, Christopher Shaffer. The students allege discrimination based upon gender, race, disabilities, and LGBTQ+ status.
Asked about her reaction to the filing of this lawsuit, Megan Ruiz stated, “For much of the past two years, I didn’t have the mental health needed to pursue this lawsuit. Now that others have come forward, I am reminded that my only goal since all of this started was to advocate for the well-being of the Ringling community. The college was negligent, and I’m moving forward for the sake of the mental health and safety of others, as scary as this is.”
