The controversy stems from comments made by Professor B in a classroom setting, which were criticised by students for infringing on personal dignity and rights.
According to the university on Friday, the school’s foundation recently finalised disciplinary measures against the professor, identified only by the surname B. The university said B has been barred from teaching classes, providing academic counselling and performing other student guidance duties. The professor was also ordered to complete anti-recurrence training through the university’s human rights centre to help prevent further incidents. The controversy began in November last year when a post criticising the professor’s classroom comments appeared on the university’s online community forum. Students later conducted their own survey and submitted a formal complaint to the school in December. According to students, the professor made comments including, “eight in 10 women in Korea have probably earned spending money through prostitution”. The professor was also accused of making remarks that could infringe on students’ personal dignity and rights.
