The University of Northern Virginia had already made news over an immigration raid last month of its Annandale office-mall headquarters.
Then, the story got stranger. Someone, presumably conducting a journalistic background sweep on university Chancellor David Lee, unearthed pictures and ads posted by the academician on an S&M Web site.
The revelation prompted little serious news coverage but fired up a whole ‘nother sector of the news media, drawing headlines such as this one, from Britain’s Daily Mail: “University chancellor, 64, exposed as sadomasochistic, suburban sex-dungeon master.”
In a letter dated Aug. 19 and posted to the university’s Web site, Lee wrote that he was stepping down immediately: “Discussions of my personal life have become a distraction,” he said, at a time when the campus faces “much more significant issues.” Lee’s replacement is Habib Khan.
Immigration authorities raided the little-known school late last month, seizing evidence and distressing the school’s student population, listed on the Web site as about 2,000 students, most of them apparently Indians living in America on student visas.
