Hundreds of academics rip University of Rochester for 'supporting predator' professor
News of Jaeger's alleged predatory behavior first broke when eight current and former researchers at the western New York university filed a scathing Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint in September.
The complaint alleged that Jaeger's predatory behavior began "immediately" after he was hired as an assistant professor in 2006.
The boycott letter alleges that officials at the University of Rochester have not done enough to protect women working or studying under Dr. Florian Jaeger, a research professor at the university's brain and cognitive sciences department.
The letter, signed by more than 400 professors, blasts university officials for allegedly "supporting the predator and intimidating the victims and advocates in this case." It was delivered to the university's trustee board on Monday.
