And you and other people here seem to realize that you cannot legislate morality, or common courtesy or civility.
Of course if dueling were legal this problem would get solved asap.

Back up there partner. Is this professor or for that matter the student senator being arrested, sued, had criminal charges or other remedies to a felonious act pressed against them?
You keep talking about legislating morality and courtesy while no one has suggested it.
Of course one CAN legislate such matters. The university can impose these things on their employees as a condition of employment. This guy is an employee,identifies himself as such, and it is up to the university to compel him not to do this kind of thing.
You can't legislate morality? Well, hate to burst your bubble, but 1) EVERY state constitution reserves the right of the State to regulate the public health, welfare, safety, and morals, and 2) a prohibition against murder is a moral judgment - just because it is common does not mean it is not moral.
