The university’s Teachers College announced Wednesday it had imposed “serious sanctions” against Madonna G. Constantine. The college said a lengthy investigation uncovered numerous instances in which she used others’ work without attribution in papers she published in academic journals over the past five years.

Details of the sanctions were not released, but Horowitz said Constantine was not suspended and will remain a tenured professor.
