Harvard allowed a “star” professor’s sexual abuse of female students to continue unchecked for decades, contributing to a “culture” of harassment in its Anthropology Department, a new lawsuit alleges.
John Comaroff “kissed and groped students without their consent, made unwelcome sexual advances, and threatened to sabotage students’ careers if they complained,” three graduate students at the university say in Tuesday’s lawsuit.
