A professor at the University of Kansas has been put on administrative leave after telling students during a recent lecture that men who do not vote for a female president should be lined up and shot. The comments were made by Professor Phil Lowcock, the director of international student-athlete support who works in the university’s Health Sport and Exercise Sciences department, according to KU’s faculty directory.
A video of the incident posted to social media has since gone viral. In the clip, Lowcock can be heard telling his students, “There are going to be some males in our society that will refuse to vote for a potential female president because they don’t think females are smart enough to be president.”
“We can line all those guys up and shoot them,” he continued. “They clearly don’t understand the way the world works.”
He then said in a sarcastic tone, “Did I say that? Scratch that from the recording. I don’t want the deans hearing that I said that.”
