CBU instructor fired after demanding sex, moose meat and lobster for better grades

A faculty member at Cape Breton University has been terminated for demanding sex, moose meat and lobster from a student who was struggling in his course in exchange for better grades.

In an emailed response, university spokeswoman Lenore Parsley didn’t answer questions about the firing, the nature of the offence, details about the employee’s position and whether there had been other complaints about the employee.

“Cape Breton University is committed to a safe and respectful campus for all of our community members,” Parsley said. “Any and all complaints follow a formal process, as indicated in our respectful campus policy.

“We won’t be commenting further.”

But the student who reported the instructor says the university told her two weeks ago that he was being fired, with the right to appeal.

She said she hadn’t been notified of any appeal as of Thursday.

The woman, who doesn’t want to be identified, said she went to university officials Feb. 7 after the employee suggested that they could be “friends with benefits” during an extra-help session he offered to the woman and another female student.

“I had started to become very uncomfortable with some of the questions he was asking, such as how many sexual partners we had, if we had ever done drugs or did crazy partying before,” the woman said in an interview via Facebook.

She said she had brought moose meat and lobster that day for the employee after he asked her to provide it in exchange for better grades. She said she knew it was wrong, but she was struggling with some of his morning quizzes and they counted for a large part of her final grade.

I think I’d have skipped the moose, and gone for couch and surf, rather than surf and turf.

There’s no picture of the student though, so maybe the extras were needed?

Canadians can appreciate that everyone needs sex and moose meat - but demands for lobster are just offensively exorbitant.

And, speaking of moose sex, here's a golden oldie story from the past in the Daily Mail about a horny moose who became weirdly "attracted" to, and takes advantage of a bronze statue >>===> "It MOOSE be love! Amorous animal gets to grips with lover (but sadly for him it's just a bronze statue)".   (Viewer discretion advised!)

“for demanding sex, moose meat”

Only in Canada is moose meat an acceptable substitute for sex in bribery situations.

I’m surprised that beer and hockey game tickets weren’t also part of the demands.
