Kansas Professor on Leave After Violent Remarks
News summary

A University of Kansas professor, identified as Phillip Lowcock, has been placed on administrative leave following the surfacing of a video in which he suggested men who refuse to vote for a female presidential candidate should be 'lined up and shot.' Lowcock made these comments during a lecture, ostensibly to advocate for women's rights, though he admitted to poorly expressing his point. The university has acknowledged the incident, stating that it is conducting an investigation and highlighting the professor's profound regret over his words. The remarks sparked outrage on social media and drew condemnation from political figures, such as Senator Roger Marshall and Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, who called for the professor's dismissal. The University of Kansas reaffirmed its commitment to handling the situation appropriately through its established processes.
