An undergraduate last week filed a civil suit for damages against an associate professor who allegedly punched him in the mouth.

David L. Parker '85 made his formal complaint in Middlesex Supreme Court against Robert C. Repetto, associate professor of Economics and Population, to recover damages charging Repetto struck him.

Repetto is currently out of the country and could not be reached for comment about the civil suit.
