DePaul University says a part-time professor who injected politics and the Israel-Hamas war into her biology class has been let go from her position.

DePaul University says it has fired a part-time biology professor after she gave an optional assignment to students last month asking them to write about the impact of 'genocide in Gaza on human health and biology.

' D’Aquino was teaching Health 194, Human Pathogens and Defense in early May, according to CBS Chicago. In its online academic catalog, DePaul describes the course as introducing students 'to the diverse microorganisms that cause significant disease within the human population.' 'The biological basis of infectious disease will be explored with a focus on the mechanisms of viral and bacterial infection and spread,' the course description adds.
