We're not identifying the teacher because he hasn't been charged, but the former student, 26-year-old Helen Quinn Pasin, is making her allegations public online.She said she was harassed and touched by the longtime teacher on multiple occasions in 2013 and 2014, and that the teacher was well known for hugging students inappropriately.

Pasin said she reported his conduct to the school, and to Oak Park police last December, concerned that the teacher is still at Fenwick. Oak Park police declined to press charges, saying they couldn't prove the conduct was a felony and that the statute of limitations had passed.
