An American professor at Pusan University fled the country after police started investigating sexual harassment allegations against him.







The university admitted Thursday that the professor allegedly verbally and sexually harassed several female students in front of a bar near the school on March 28.







He then allegedly kissed a student's cheek and said inappropriate things, including sexual insults, to other students.







The students put up a hand-written poster about his behavior and remarks.







Some students wrote in protest, "I'm not going to have sex with you" on the blackboard before his lecture, following remarks he had made.







The school ordered him to appear at a disciplinary session but he fled the country after sending a resignation email. The school department fired him and his photo was removed from the faculty list.







A school official rejected a Korea Times request to reveal the professor's identity.
