Van Halen: University student suspended after writing Hot For Teacher essay


An Oakland University student in Rochester, Michigan has been suspended after writing about his attraction to one of his professors in an essay titled “Hot For Teacher” that was based on a song by Van Halen.

WXYX reports aspiring writer Joseph Corlett says he was never warned that writing about his attraction to his professors who are women crossed the line in his Advanced Critical Writing class.

Corlett says the same professor who was offended had previously praised him for his written work that detailed his attraction to women.

“I’m getting all As and when you get all As, I’m not going to start writing about freight trains or snow”, said Corbett who added, “She made it clear that she didn’t want us to edit. She wanted the raw stuff.”

Corlett is appealing his year-long suspension and wants the university to allow him to complete the course under the guidance of another professor.

A spokesperson for Oakland University says the school cannot comment on the matter because it is a “student conduct” issue.
