Harvard professor accused of sexual misconduct to retire

The Boston Globe reports:

Jorge Dominguez, the celebrated Harvard government professor who has been accused of sexually inappropriate behavior by more than a dozen students, professors, and staff going back over three decades, will retire at the end of the semester.

Dominguez, 72, decided to push up the date of his planned retirement three days after he was placed on administrative leave pending an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment, according to the university.

The chairwoman of Harvard’s government department said that his retirement “does not change the active review of the facts and circumstances that have recently come to light.”

It's very sad that a top political science department tolerated and promoter a visible sexual predator ... for decades. Harvard should be ashamed.
