ORDER ON REHEARING
April 21, 1994
Plaintiff-Appellant filed a petition for rehearing on March 29, 1994. This petition implies that Chief Judge Posner and Judge Easterbrook should recuse themselves if they are aware of the circumstances under which plaintiff departed from the National Opinion Research Center. Neither Chief Judge Posner nor Judge Easterbrook had heard of the plaintiff before this litigation; neither was aware, until reading the petition for rehearing, that plaintiffs departure from NORC had been a topic of discussion or controversy at the University of Chicago; there is accordingly no basis for recusal. All of the judges on the panel have voted to deny rehearing. The petition for rehearing is therefore denied.
