Northwestern Professor Quits Over Used Condoms In His Backyard
A professor is leaving his job at Northwestern University because he's tired of finding beer cans and used condoms in his yard.
Dr. Mark Waymack, who was an adjunct associate professor in Medical Humanities and Bioethics at Northwestern, said he's also moving away from his home near the Evanston, Ill., campus because the students are too rowdy, CBS Chicago reports.
“The used condoms tend to show up in the back yard, actually,” Waymack told CBS Chicago, adding complaints about "the vomit, the beer cans in the hedges. I think they horse around late at night."
Waymack is pointing the blame at the Northwestern administration.
He wrote a letter of resignation to Morton Schapiro, the university's president, which was read at an Evanston City Council meeting on June 11 by Ald. Judy Fiske. Waymack remained anonymous when the letter was read at the meeting, but has since disclosed his name, according to the Daily Northwestern.
