“In recent days, we learned of specific conduct by Dr. Gow that has subjected the university to significant reputational harm. His actions were abhorrent.”
An investigation into his conduct will be conducted by an outside law firm.
Additionally, his social media presence and previous controversies, including inviting a porn star to campus, were mentioned.
Gow defended his actions as a matter of free speech, while concerns about the impact of pornography were also raised.
“I’m very concerned that here’s an issue of free speech, and we’re seeing the Board of Regents not supporting the concept,” Gow said.
