Three universities are disputing claims by a Cambridge professor about his academic affiliations, revealing discrepancies in his online bio—Ohio State and Glasgow say they never granted him visiting professorships, while Durham confirms only an unpaid association. Amid mounting scrutiny over his credentials, the professor admits to errors, including inflated charity fundraising figures and misrepresenting his involvement with a TV series. Further controversy erupts over a disputed racist incident involving a pig’s head, which police deny investigating. Cambridge defends him, citing institutional protocols for misconduct investigations, while his PhD remains intact after review by Liverpool John Moores. The fallout continues to pressure Cambridge to act as public trust in academia wavers.
