Sensitivity training for obesity Tweet professor

Geoffrey Miller, associate professor of psychology at 바카라사이트 University of New Mexico, apologised after sending 바카라사이트 Tweet, which he subsequently deleted. He later told UNM it had been part of a research project ¨C a claim dismissed by 바카라사이트 university.

The institution has now formally censured Professor Miller for ¡°misrepresenting to his department chair and colleagues 바카라사이트 motivation for a Tweet¡±.

¡°Miller at first claimed his Tweet was part of a research project, but investigations by 바카라사이트 Institutional Review Board at New York University where he was a visiting professor, and 바카라사이트 IRB at UNM where he is a tenured professor, concluded that was not correct,¡± a statement from his university read.

As part of 바카라사이트 censure, Professor Miller will be required to develop ¡°a plan for sensitivity training as it pertains to obesity¡± in cooperation with 바카라사이트 UNM psychology department, and apologise to colleagues for his behavior.

Professor Miller, who can appeal 바카라사이트 censure,?will also have his work monitored by 바카라사이트 chair of 바카라사이트 psychology department, and will be assigned a faculty mentor for three years, with whom he will meet on a regular basis to discuss potential problems.

An investigation into Professor Miller¡¯s dealings with students and colleagues found no evidence that he had discriminated against people who are overweight.
