A licensed social worker who unsuccessfully applied for a professorship at Bridgewater State University last summer has sued the college, after she was allegedly asked to defend her 'whiteness' during an interview. Donna Johnston, a therapist in Plainfield, , filed the race and employment discrimination suit in Superior Court last week, claiming she was subject to a racist interview when she applied for an assistant professorship position at the state-run school's social work department in June.Johnston, who did not get the job, says that she was asked a series of jarring questions about her 'whiteness' during the interview, presided over by an associate professor who has since left the university.
