NYC professor who threatened to ‘chop’ Post reporter with machete gets new teaching gig
The former Manhattan college professor who threatened to “chop” up a Post reporter while holding a machete to his neck appears to have secured a new teaching gig.
Shellyne Rodriguez is listed as an adjunct instructor at the Cooper Union in the East Village and appears on the fall semester schedule as teaching a sculpture class.
A spokesperson for Cooper Union did not immediately respond when asked to confirm Rodriguez’s employment status.
Rodriguez was fired from her roles as a professor at both Hunter College and the School of Visual Arts after she was caught threatening and then chasing a veteran Post reporter with a machete on May 23.
She was charged with harassment and menacing following the violent encounter which began when the scribe and a photographer knocked on the door of her Bronx apartment to get comment on a viral video featuring the professor.
