UT-Dallas is investigating a professor’s homophobic tweet with misinformation about monkeypox

LGBTQ students want the university to take “substantive action” against the computer science professor for his tweet, which included misinformation about how the monkeypox virus spreads.

The UT Dallas Spirit Rock is painted in rainbow colors with a message reading "Here to Stay!" as UTD students use chalk to create messages and art in support of LGBTQ+ students, outside the Activity Center on campus, on July 18, 2022 in Richardson.
