WYZANSKI, Senior District Judge.

This is primarily an appeal by the Board of Trustees of the University of Massachusetts (“the University”) from a judgment based on the district court’s finding that the University, in denying professorial tenure to Prem Kumar, discriminated against him because of his race and national origin and on that court’s conclusion that in so discriminating the university violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq. Kumar v. Board of Trustees of University of Massachusetts, 566 F.Supp. 1299 (D.Mass.1983).
