Quote: "A University of Georgia psychology professor accused of violating the University policy against sexual harassment intends to resign because of his “disgust” with the way the investigative process was handled.

Richard Suplita, a professor of behavioral and brain sciences who has worked at UGA for 14 years, was notified Oct. 15 that an Equal Opportunity Office investigation found he had violated the Non-Discrimination and Anti-Harassment policy.

The investigator recommended his termination from the University."

“Suplita admits he violated the policy in 2012, when he dated an undergraduate student he met in one of his classes”.
