An art professor at Hunter College in New York City has been “relieved of her duties” after accosting students hosting a pro-life booth on the school campus, before waving a machete at New York Post reporters who approached her for a subsequent interview.

Until recently, Shellyne Rodriguez had been an adjunct assistant professor in Hunter College’s Art & Art History Department. Her departure from the university came after she was involved in an altercation with members of Students for Life, a pro-life organization that hosted a booth at the college.
