ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A lawsuit has been filed against a retired University of Alaska Anchorage anthropology professor who is banned from campus over sexual misconduct allegations by multiple women. David Yesner is named in the federal lawsuit filed Wednesday along with The University of Alaska system and the University of Alaska Board of Regents, Anchorage television station KTVA reported . Plaintiffs maintain Yesner was allowed to use the UAA campus as his own personal “hunting ground” while the university shielded its reputation instead of protecting female students. They say the university failed to follow Title IX requirements following numerous complaints from the women. The lawsuit also seeks removal of Yesner’s name from diplomas and other university documents.
