An assistant professor of music who is the choir director at the University of North Dakota says the institution is trying to fire him for being gay, the AP reported. Anthony Reeves told the AP that his evaluations dropped after it became known that he was trying to adopt a 19-year-old gay student. But university officials say that the professor’s sexual orientation is not related to his difficulties. Several complaints have been filed against him, one alleging that he was drunk and ignored his responsibilities while supervising a trip to Europe last summer — charges that he denies.
