Juilliard Professor Caught In The Act Is Fired

We gather that Juilliard has summarily fired a professor of violin after he was caught in what is said to be ‘a lewd act’. Apart from two witnesses who opened the door of his studio and reported the act, no other person was involved.

An email has gone out to parents. Around 30 students have been left without a teacher. Other professors are being urged to take one or two more onto their roster. The sacked professor’s named has been deleted from the Juilliard website.

We await clarification.

The professor has a distinguished record. His past pupils play in major US orchestras.

UPDATE: Juilliard has confirmed that the sacked professor is Li Lin. He was on the faculty for ten years.

They opened the door without knocking?

He didn't have the door locked?

Yes, I think we can safely assume that.

Too much sex and violins at that school.

I have to applaud the Julliard administration for swiftly dealing with the decadency of the professor.

Keep it in the privacy of your bedroom, prof.

Pure speculation, but this incident could have been the last in a series of similar occurances.

One of my old neighbors went to Julliard, and he was also one of the presidents of the United States of America.
