The Columbia University professor suspected of punching a female colleague in the face in an argument over "white privilege" has been banned for life from the bar where the fight occurred. The Post reports that Lionel McIntyre, the 59-year-old associate architecture professor implicated in the racially-heated fight on Friday, will not be allowed to return to the Broadway bar Toast, where he was once a regular. The scuffle left Camille Davis, a production manager in Columbia's theater department, "with bruising and redness in the right eye," police reports indicated.

the bar...not the university? so the bar has actually got higher standards than Columbia.
What bar doesn't?
touche.
what is it you would like Columbia to do?
I'd say bring him up on whatever charges (violence, disrespect, besotted behavior) they need to. This is not a biker bar rowdy but a an Associate Professor in the Architecture school at a major University.
have some fucking standards.
Fire him, and pay her legal and medical bills.
well, they do have very good hamburgers at the bar.
Good. Trash belongs outside.
Oh no! Where will he go to get a drink in this town?
i guess he'll have to punch white women in other bars now, the poor guy being discriminated against like this. he deserves reparations.
I wanna punch you.
The woman should be arrested for assaulting the prof's fist with her face. The prof was the victim of a hate crime, and we should hold a candlelight vigil in his honor.
is this really news? being banned from a bar?
being 86'ed from the fruit store, not able to get some green plantains?
you've obviously never been to Toast.
no, I haven't. it's been over 20 years since I went back to that area. OK, I've visited it once last summer to see a grad student.
Shut up, Jackoff. Anytime Gothamist reports on blacks behaving badly you act like a one-man PR firm trying to downplay everything. I didn't know that Al Sharpton kept internet troll shock troops in his cadre.
hey, my number one squirrel fan is back!
I'll meet you for a drink at Toast.
and what about all the posts you've posted on Gothamist?
pot meet kettle.
Yeah, I'll buy you a beer there, Bernie, and we can talk about our ideas.
If you get rowdy and sock me I promise I won't make waves.
Sure. Just make sure your bleeding heart doesn't gush into my bloody mary.
i'll only cry for you sweets
Can you PLEASE stop calling him an architecture professor?
He is a professor of urban planning in the dept. of urban planning, which is part of the school of architecture.
I did my masters there, so you have that info on good authority. Also, having met this fellow a few times, this incident doesn't surprise me. He always seemed like an angry jerk.
Urban Planning? Maybe he can write a text on curbs and gutters.
With his teeth.
This isn't an update until the school responds.
I guess Columbia is waiting to see what Toast does, and then follow their lead, maybe ?
Umm he hit a woman.
why does it matter that it's women? are you suggesting they are defenseless or somehow inferior to men?
Haven't you heard of chivalry? Men are not supposed to hit women. It's not about inferiority, it's a matter of good manners and respect. And we are supposed to keep women safe and protect them from harm, because women are sacred.
It's okay to hit a man, because men should always be willing to rise to the challenge, as an exercise in bravery and fighting prowess. That makes us stronger and thus more capable of protecting women. So hit a man if you're prepared to be hit back.
Congratulations, you've somehow managed to convince me that the face-puncher here is less misogynistic than you are.
Racist, maybe. Bizarrely violent, maybe. But clearly much more forward-thinking than you on gender relations.
Toast showed up Columbia. LOL
If he's teaching this semester they won't fire him mid-semester. Best we cane hope for is that he is quietly written out of the catalog for Spring 2010 and simply not offered a spot or a reason to return. If he were tenured, THEN the school would have to suspend/terminate him.
lol blax
toast,it works everytime.
