According to his page on Michigan University's website, Philbert is also a professor of toxicology in the University of Michigan School of Public Health.

Does that include toxic masculinity?

He’ll probably claim some type of discrimination led to the allegations of sexual misconduct. He’ll be on paid leave until he’s fully retired, probably get a $400,000 per year pension and free health insurance for life.

He is of a privileged protected minority group. How can this be?

Just like almost every professor at every elite university these days.

I guarantee you he’s on paid leave, full salary, and he’ll kick back on his long paid vacation.

He’s lawyered up and his case will drag on for at least 3 to 4 years. Then he’ll retire with a platinum pension and benefits.

The onetime head of the EEO office at my old small federal agency must have been hired as a practical example of “how to spot a harasser.”

So the guy in charge of dealing with sexual misconduct complaints, is himself accused of sexual misconduct?

What a crazy situation. Hoky Toledo.........

“Martin A. Philbert, who earns $570,340 a year”

I prefer the more accurate: Martin A. Philbert, who gets paid $570,340 a year.
I seriously doubt that he adds 570k worth of value to the school, therefore, he doesn’t earn it.

Who are the idiots that would pay half a mil a year for this position. A lot of people should be locked up for this.
