SOMETIMES IT’S BEST NOT TO LEAVE A COMMENT: “NYC’s Fordham U facing lawsuits from ex-professor and student after alleged Zoom masturbation incident.”
A former professor who was fired from Fordham University in New York City for allegedly masturbating during a Zoom class last year – and the student who recorded the incident on video – have both sued the school, according to reports.
Howard Robinson, 69, claimed he has erectile dysfunction which would make the alleged act “virtually impossible” and said what the student recorded in September 2020 was him trying to send an email while he needed to use the bathroom due to an enlarged prostate, according to the New York Daily News.
“The thought of masturbating was the furthest thing from my mind. I was totally focused on teaching,” he said. He said he told officials about his ED during a school inquiry.
