University president urged to quit

Chinese consulate general expresses 'serious concerns' in misconduct case

Two hundred faculty members at the University of Southern California have called on school president to step down following accusations of sexual misconduct against a former physician at the school's student health center.

In a letter to the school's board of trustees, they said that Max Nikias had "lost the moral authority to lead" in the wake of revelations that a campus gynecologist was kept on staff for decades despite repeated complaints of misconduct, the Los Angeles Times and NBC reported.
