Sabrappeal
JTA reports,
A journalism instructor at Boston University was fired for calling one of his students a “true Sabra,” or native-born Israeli, who is “incredibly hot.” Michael Gee, formerly a sportswriter at the Boston Herald, lasted barely a month after a post on his personal Web log described a student as “so incredibly hot” that “it was all I could do to remember the other five students,” Boston magazine reported. Gee did not identify the student, but the magazine named her as Natalie Zfat, a 19-year-old from the University of Central Florida taking summer courses at B.U. The student quit the course, telling Boston magazine, “You’re entitled to feel safe and comfortable knowing that your professor is a professional, not a pervert.” She also noted that Gee got his facts wrong: “I’m from Brooklyn,” she said.
