Three University of South Alabama (USA) professors have been placed on leave after photos of them dressed in racially insensitive Halloween costumes reportedly surfaced.
As ABC News reports, photos from a 2014 on-campus Halloween party surfaced last week that showed USA finance professor Bob Wood dressed as a Confederate soldier while fellow professors Alex Sharland and Teresa Weldy were shown posing with whips and nooses.
USA President Tony Waldrop said on Friday that an investigation into the photos will be carried out by attorney Suntrease Williams-Maynard, who is a former trial attorney for the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and also served as a former assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Alabama.
