La Salle spokesman Joseph Donovan would not comment on Rappaport's status while the investigation continues. Students say they have a new teacher.

In a follow-up story College paper goes "topless" in protest over exotic dancer flap, school administrators prevented the La Salle University newspaper, "Collegian," from printing a headline story about the seminar "above the fold". The article states that the newspaper editors decided to "go topless" in response:
So to protest, the top half of Thursday's front page of the "Collegian" was blank - "topless" as it were - except for the words "See below the fold."
I used to know a guy whose business ethics involved using a significant amount of company money to insert into the g-strings of erotic dancers at a gentleman’s club.
Well, now we can be pretty certain where Professor Jack Rappaport hangs out after he teaches his classes.
Where was He in 1970-71 when I went there?
In the light of today's news story, Jack Rappaport's La Salle University bio page is especially hilarious. Does he also hold field trips to demonstrate how the liver works, through real-world visits to local bars - purely for academic purposes, of course?
I try to enrich my teaching by using interesting real life applications such as the use of the horse race betting market in the teaching of statistics.... One of my particular interests is the study of the horse race betting market; my paper with K.L. Rhoda and G.L Olsen, “Risk Preferences and Information Flows in Racetrack Betting Markets” was published in the Journal of Financial Research in 1999. More recently I have been working on a paper on an experiential approach to teaching statistics using the horse race betting market.
This class would make a good inspiration for a movie script, with Vince Vaughan and Wil Farrell.
Another shot fired in the war to win students away from Northwestern University’s sex-toy class.
