  1. But I thought there was white privilege?

  2. He's a Democrat so you know nothing will happen. People will forget and he'll get his job back

  3. What happened? Did he need the money?😂 Tbh it's going to be awkward in class with all the jokes.
    How did they find out about them and their ahem hobby. Was someone snooping on him, did they need to watch everyone's videos to find him.
    It's not the worse thing happening rn, it's not like he's a maniac or anything.

  4. We’re in demonic times for sure.

  5. It all depends on state law. In the state where I lived, I was an employee at the will of my employer. Period. My employer had the right to terminate at its will. Aside from that, without seeing the video, how can I judge? Do I have to go on Pornhub to see the videos in question?

  6. As tall as he is, his balls still touched the ground, gross

  7. the christians lost the war but we still hold onto their morals

  9. How ridiculous for a man to rise to this leadership position and then engage in this public behavior. What an embarrassment! Many Wisconsinites are "at will" employees; he should be, too, considering he is not indispensable. His job is to maintain an ethical standard, and he clearly failed. Therefore, he's got to go!

  10. Oh my. Sounds like he has been setting this up for a juicy law suit. Lots of planning.

  11. Ladies & Gentlemen from the George Santos school of no shame Chancellor Dr.Joe Gow.

  12. The University has the right to set standards of behavior of employees

  13. They’ll end up writing him a large check!

  14. This feels like weird American pearl clutching. Other countries don’t put these prim-and-proper expectations on their leaders in the same way Americans do. Like leaders with not-so-vanilla off-the-clock lives aren’t an unheard of things in other countries. Who cares as long as they’re doing a good job when they’re on the clock? I literally couldn’t care less about the dude’s off-the-clock life. It’s mildly amusing if anything, but he doesn’t deserve to lose his job.

  15. He reduced the value of every degree those students earned. His behavior was shameful

  16. That is some twisted stuff. What make you think people want to see that stuff- NOT !!!!!

  17. Sounds like the University is sticking it to him!

    Wait a minute. . . . 🤣🤣
