Quote: "Calling his conduct "absolutely disgraceful," Florida State University's provost has ordered meteorology professor Peter Ray suspended without pay for 21 days for unauthorized use of university property and conduct unbecoming a university employee."

"But after that investigation, which determined that Ray had gone to Melissa Sanders' dorm for "sexual gratification," Abele wrote that Ray's behavior was "reprehensible" and ordered him not to meet one on one with female students or faculty unless he was in plain view on campus.

Ray was also removed as chairman of the school's meteorology department."
