GMU Lecturer Fired After Student Hospitalized Following In-Class Drinking Incident
Sources have reported that an adjunct faculty member at George Mason University was fired after drinking alcohol with undergraduate students during a class presentation. An internal investigation, along with a police investigation, was launched after reports that one student passed out and required EMS assistance. The incident involved students in a 400-level course, with the instructor allegedly encouraging students to bring alcohol. The university confirmed the faculty member’s termination, citing policy violations, and is reaching out to all students taught by the instructor this semester while investigating further reports of inappropriate behavior.
