Juilliard Professor Fired for Sexual Misconduct.

The Juilliard School in New York fired former composition department chair Robert Beaser after an independent investigation found credible evidence of sexual misconduct with students. Allegations against Beaser were made relevant again after classical music magazine VAN published an article in December looking into accusations Beaser had made repeated sexual advances toward students and entered into sexual relationships with some of them. The school also plans to prohibit all amorous or sexual relationships between faculty and students starting in the fall.
