ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — A professor who was named one of Time magazine's 2017 Persons of the Year for outing a colleague accused of sexual misconduct has resigned from the University of Rochester over the university's handling of complaints against him.

Celeste Kidd said Friday that the university had not meaningfully responded to problems that she and several other faculty members raised in a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission last fall about T. Florian Jaeger, a professor of brain and cognitive sciences.
