INSIDE HIGHER ED — Students at Georgetown University are demanding accountability after law professor Franz Werro referred to a student in class as “Mr. Chinaman.” A video of the Feb. 10 incident has gone viral, attracting more than 140,000 views. Werro apologized in an email the next day for using the anti-Asian slur, according to the legal news website Above the Law. “As a non-native English speaker myself, I did not appreciate that it was a derogatory term, as I now understand it is,” he wrote. “I am very sorry I used it.” A letter from the Asian Pacific American Law Students Association of Georgetown University Law Center called for a public apology from Werro to the affected students, mandatory implicit bias training, alternative course offerings for students who feel uncomfortable taking Werro’s classes and public acknowledgment of the incident from law school leadership, among other demands. William M. Treanor, dean and executive vice president of the Georgetown University Law Center, issued a statement to students on Feb. 11, Above the Law reported.
