Description
In November 1950, Albert E. Monroe (hereinafter petitioner), then a tenured, full professor and Chairman of the Language Arts Division at San Francisco State College, was discharged from his teaching position solely on the basis of his refusal to sign the "Levering Oath," a loyalty oath formerly embodied in section 3103 of the Government Code. In 1952 this court in Pockman v. Leonard (1952) 39 Cal. 2d 676 [249 P.2d 267], upheld the Levering Oath in the face of a constitutional attack, but in 1967, in Vogel v. County of Los Angeles (1967) 68 Cal. 2d 18 [64 Cal. Rptr. 409, 434 P.2d 961], we expressly overruled Pockman and concluded that the Levering Oath, proscribing public employees' mere membership in certain organizations, constituted an unconstitutional infringement of First Amendment rights.
